Pearl Zane Grey (January 31, 1872 - October 23, 1939) was an American author best known for his popular adventure novels and stories that presented an idealized image of the Old West. Riders of the Purple Sage (1912) was his best-selling book. In addition to the success of his printed works, they later had second lives and continuing influence when adapted as films and TV productions. As of 2007, 110 films, one TV episode, and a series, Dick Powell's Zane Grey Theater, had been made that were based loosely on his novels and short stories.(wikipedia.org) "There was something beyond the white peaked ranges..." Zane Grey did not merely write about the West. He lived it, too. This 1922 bounty of true travel tales brings together some of the master storyteller's most exciting Western adventures, including "Colorado Trails," "Death Valley," "Tonto Basin," "Nonnezosme," and "Roping Lions in the Grand Canyon."

Indeed that is how you feel when you read this book--that you are on the trail or around the campfire with Zane Grey. From the visit to the Rainbow Bridge to the crossing of Death Valley you'll take every step with him and feel you are there. Along the way you will encounter some interesting people and characters who helped form Zane Grey's version of the West--from traders, hunters, and just plain old folks whose influence helped make Zane Grey the writer he was. You'll thrill again the remembrance of his novels as each page unfolds in some location he has described in one of his books. There are deer hunts and bear hunts and the roping of lions in the Grand Canyon with Buffalo Jones and the most famous dog since Call of the Wild, Don. For anyone who enjoys Zane Grey's fiction this book of life in the great outdoors is just as good.
