Bud Moore enters into a partnership with a prospector in the Western wilderness and looks forward to a life of adventure and fortune. Little does he know how much soul-searching will go on in the cabin they share, especially when a child enters their lives and changes their destinies. The prolific author B.M. Bower lived on a number of Western ranches and farms in her day and was intimately acquainted with the creeping solitude that can surround those who spend time alone on the range.

Mary V flipped the rough paper over with so little tenderness that a corner tore in her fingers, but the next page was blank. She made a sound suspiciously like a snort, and threw the tablet down on the littered table of the bunk house. After all, what did she care where they floated-Venus and Johnny Jewel? Riding the sky with Venus when he knew very well that his place was out in the big corral, riding some of those broom-tail bronks that he was being paid a salary-a good salary-for breaking Mary V thought that her father ought to be told about the way Johnny was spending all his...

If you would test the soul of a friend, take him into the wilderness and rub elbows with him for five months. Either you will hate each other forever afterwards, or emerge with contempt tinged with a pitying toleration -- or you will be close, unquestioning friends to the end of your days.

Bud Birnie, the son of a wealthy Wyoming rancher, sets out to make his way with three horses as capital. He does it, of course, but it entails encounters with Indians and highwaymen, and an ominous venture in Burroback Valley. Somewhat above the author's average.
