| Summary |
"The Pony Rider Boys with the Texas Rangers; Or, On the Trail of the Border Bandits" by Frank Gee Patchin is a novel written during the early 20th century. This book follows a group of adventurous young horsemen, the Pony Rider Boys, who find themselves caught up in a dangerous situation while traveling in Texas, intersecting with infamous outlaws and the Texas Rangers. The opening of the story presents a weary group of riders, led by Professor Zepplin, as they navigate the scorching Texas landscape. Among them are the optimistic Tad Butler, the sleepy Chunky, and other friends who humorously bicker about their exhaustion. Just as they decide to make camp near a creek, they are suddenly ambushed by an unknown shooter, leading to a series of comedic yet urgent responses to save themselves. The engaging mix of humor and tension showcases the camaraderie among the characters, setting the stage for the adventures and dangers that lie ahead as they encounter the notorious border bandit Dunk Tucker.
