Excellent reading. Zane Grey was the best selling western author of the early 1900's. He is known for his remarkable eye and incredibly detailed description of nature, including landscapes, plant life, and animals. Although many of Grey's characters are gunfighters and outlaws, he is sympathetic to Native Americans and portrays strong female characters (see Betty Zane). He is partial to the Tonto region of Arizona, but as a sportsman, he traveled the world and spent a great deal of time fishing in the South Pacific (see The Reef Girl).The Walter J.
