Frank’s Ranch Or My Holiday In The Rockies: Being A Contribution To The Inquiry Into What We Are To Do With Our Boys (1886) is a book written by Edward Marston. The book is a memoir of the author’s trip to the Rocky Mountains where he stayed at Frank’s Ranch. The author describes his experiences of the ranch, the people he met, and the adventures he had during his stay. The book is also a reflection on the question of what to do with young men in society. The author uses his experiences at the ranch to argue that young men should be given opportunities to explore the world and engage in physical activities to develop their character. The book provides insights into the life and culture of the American West in the late 19th century and highlights the importance of outdoor activities for personal growth and development.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
