Fairview Boys on a Ranch is the sixth and final book in the Fairview Boys Series. It was published in 1917. In this adventure, Frank Haven's older brother, George, wrangles an invitation for the boys' to spend their summer vacation on the Western ranch where George works. Even before they leave, adventure strikes: one of the boys, Bob, almost drowns! Making it to the ranch, they learn how to ride, after which they come close to witnessing the hanging of an accused robber, get closer than they should have to a rattlesnake, find a mysterious cave, and get lost on the open range during a violent storm. A great way to end the series.
