"Grace Harlowe's Overland Riders at Circle O Ranch" by Josephine Chase is a novel written in the early 20th century. This adventurous tale follows Grace Harlowe and her friends, the Overland Riders, as they embark on an exhilarating summer outing in the Coso Valley, Southern California, filled with unexpected encounters and challenges. As the group encounters quirky guides and mysterious figures, the narrative blends humor and adventure, focusing on the camaraderie and resourcefulness of Grace and her companions. The opening of the book sets the stage for the Overland Riders' journey, as they arrive in the Coso Valley and prepare for a summer of riding and exploration. The characters are introduced, including the humorous Stacy Brown, who is comically preoccupied with his dreams, and Grace Harlowe, who leads the group with enthusiasm. Tensions begin to surface with the arrival of two eccentric guides named Jim and Sam, whose bumbling interactions provide comic relief while hinting at the adventures to come. As the group sets up camp, they are soon alerted to a potential threat when a mysterious horseman begins to follow them, foreshadowing the trouble that awaits in this wild and unpredictable land.
