The Last Trail is the final installment of the trilogy Zane Grey wrote about his ancestors and the part they played in the American Revolution, and the establishment of the frontier. This book focuses on Jonathan Zane and Lew Wetzel both "border men" who either lived with the Indians, or as in Wetzel's case fervently hated the red man. But without the likes of either there was no way the frontier could be made safe for the influx of settlers. This is the country where Zane Grey grew up, fished, and tramped through the woods learning the woodcraft and skill to know of which things he wrote with unsurpassed accuracy, and it shows in his books. Romanticized, to be sure, yet accurate to a T in history, this book makes for a great read for anyone who wants to learn more about this country in its earliest of days. I recommend it without hesitation.
