This 1993 mass market paperback edition of “Old Ramon” by Jack Schaefer offers readers a chance to explore a lesser-known work by the author of the classic Western novel “Shane.” Published two years after Schaefer’s death, this Newbery Honor book transports readers to the sun-baked landscapes of the American Southwest, where an aging ranch hand named Ramon befriends a young boy. With its vivid descriptions of ranch life and the natural world, “Old Ramon” captures the fading era of the Old West through the eyes of its endearing protagonists. Collectors of Schaefer’s works or fans of heartwarming intergenerational tales will appreciate this well-preserved copy, which remains in good condition despite its age. While not as renowned as “Shane,” this charming novella showcases Schaefer’s talent for crafting memorable characters and immersive settings, making it a worthwhile addition to any library.
