When a Man's a Man is a novel written by Harold Bell Wright. The story revolves around a young man named Jack Hawn who is determined to prove his manhood to his father and to the world. Jack leaves his home in the Ozarks and heads to the Wild West to make a name for himself. He becomes a cowboy and works on a ranch where he falls in love with a beautiful woman named Ruth. However, Jack's dreams of proving his manhood are shattered when he is accused of a crime he did not commit. He is forced to flee the ranch and go on the run. As he travels across the West, Jack faces many challenges and learns valuable lessons about what it truly means to be a man. The novel explores themes of masculinity, courage, and honor, and is a classic example of Western literature.1916. A wonderful story of the West from Wright, who, prior to his artistic and writing career, served as a minister. The story begins: There is a land where a man, to live, must be a man. It is a land of granite and marble and porphyry and gold-and a man's strength must be as the strength of the primeval hills. It is a land of oaks and cedars and pines-and a man's mental grace must be as the grace of the untamed trees. It is a land of far-arched and unstained skies, where the wind sweeps free and untainted, and the atmosphere is the atmosphere of those places that remain as God made them-and a man's soul must be as the unstained skies, the unburdened wind, and the untainted atmosphere. It is a land of wide mesas, of wild, rolling pastures and broad, untilled, valley meadows-and a man's freedom must be that freedom which is not bounded by the fences of a too weak and timid conventionalism.
