About This Book

"A most appealing book... Its genuineness and its simplicity will build up a large audience of enthusiastic readers." — San Francisco Chronicle

Ralph Moody was eight years old in 1906 when his family moved from New Hampshire to a Colorado ranch. Through his eyes we experience the pleasures and perils of ranching there early in the twentieth century. Auctions and roundups, family picnics, irrigation wars, tornadoes and wind storms give authentic color to  Little Britches. So do adventures, wonderfully told, that equip Ralph to take his father's place when it becomes necessary. 

Little Britches was the literary debut of Ralph Moody, who wrote about the adventures of his family in eight glorious books, all available as Bison Books.
