  A sequel to last year's success, THE GIRL FROM THE BIG HORN COUNTRY(sixth printing). This new story is more western in flavor than thefirst book--since practically all of the action occurs back in the BigHorn country, at Virginia's home, to which she invites her easternfriends for a summer vacation. The vacation in the West proves "thebest ever" for the Easterners, and in recounting their pleasures theytell of the hundreds of miles of horseback riding, how they climbedmountains, trapped a bear, shot gophers, fished, camped, homesteaded,and of the delightful hospitality of Virginia and her friends.

  "The story is full of life and movement and presents a variety ofinteresting characters."--_St. Paul Despatch._

  "This is most gladsome reading to all who love healthfulness of mind,heart and body."--_Boston Ideas._
