"What's it like to have twenty-five guests and no employees What's it like to have twenty-five employees and no guests Such are just sample of the many hilarious and embarrassing situations Barbara Hooton was calledupon to deal with when she left the comparative luxury of her New York apartment to manage a dude ranch in New Mexico. It was her husband's fault really. He had dreams of wealth and freedom in the Golden West and Barbara soon found herself exchanging her city finery for hard-wearing blue jeans, wrestling with stubborn stoves and highly-strung cooks, not to mention a variegated assortment of difficult guests. What is a dude ranch Well it's a place - often a genuine ranch - which has seen better days and which has been renovated to cater for guests who are looking for a holiday that will allow them to let their hair down and play at being cowboys and Indians." - from dust-jacket blurb.
