May Hollis Barton

Nell Grayson’s Ranching Days, or, A City Girl in the Great West

New York: Cupples & Leon, 1926

The Barton Books for Girls series consisted of 15 titles produced and marketed by the Stratemeyer Syndicate under the "May Hollis Barton" house name. The series was published by Cupples & Leon between 1926 and 1932. According to the publisher, “Showing how Nell, when she had a ranch girl visit her in Boston, thought her chum very green, but when Nell visited the ranch in the great West she found herself confronting many conditions of which she was totally ignorant. A stirring outdoor story.”  This particular theme goes back at least to Aesop’s fable of the city mouse and country mouse.
