A Fine book in a Very Good (almost Near Fine) dust jacket. The author's first book. Robert Ormond Case (1895-1964) was an American author. He was based in Oregon and was well-known in Portland. Excerpt from front flap: "If you want to meet real cowboys, taken directly from life, you will find them in the two leading characters of this book--'Lonesome' McQuirk and 'Windy' de Long. . They're plain everyday hombres of the Oregon ranges, middle-aged, hard-bitten, shy of women, skilled in the handling of cards and six-guns, thoroughly loyal and courageous. They had been partners for many moons, and when Lonesome became interested in the red-haired schoolma'am of the district, it looked as if the partnership might be dissolved . A refreshing book that will make the reader acquainted with some typical Western scenes and incidents and with some delightfully human Western characters.".
