About this eBook

Author Stead, Robert J. C., 1880-1959
Title The Cow Puncher
Credits Produced by Al Haines
Summary "The Cow Puncher" by Robert J. C. Stead is a novel written in the early 20th century. This story captures the rugged life of ranching in the American West, focusing on themes of transformation, responsibility, and the intersection of rural and urban experiences. The main character, Dave Elden, is a ranchhand who navigates the complexities of life on the frontier while encountering both personal challenges and romantic aspirations. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to Dave Elden, a capable but rough-around-the-edges ranch boy, who is thrust into an unexpected situation when he helps a girl named Irene Hardy and her injured father after their automobile accident. As he grapples with his feelings for Irene and his disdain for the constraints of ranch life, their interactions reveal contrasts between their backgrounds and future aspirations. The opening chapters vividly depict Dave’s rough, untamed environment contrasted with Irene's urban sophistication, while also portraying the budding friendship that evolves amidst this backdrop, setting the stage for Dave’s quest for self-discovery and personal growth.
