Praise for Zane Grey
“Zane Grey epitomized the mythical West that should have been.” —True West magazine
“Zane Grey was a literary giant. He had the knack of tying his characters into the land and the land into the story.” —Erle Stanley Gardner, creator of Perry Mason
Praise for Desert Heritage
"Grey’s first western was published under the title The Heritage of the Desert in 1910, though he had intended to call it Desert Heritage. In addition to the title change, there were also many alterations made to the text. Now Grey’s original manuscript, recently rediscovered, is being published for the first time. It’s a sprawling story: a man from the East moves to the West, becomes involved with rustlers and other venomous types, falls in love with a mixed-breed woman, and discovers the man who had been hiding inside him all along. The novel doesn’t read like a first effort in the genre—Grey’s style appears to have been fully formed when he wrote it (he had published a handful of non-westerns before finding his metier). Longtime Grey devotees will relish the opportunity to read the novel the way the author intended it to be read, and western fans less familiar with Grey’s work will simply enjoy it as entertaining old-school genre fare." —David Pitt, Booklist
Praise for War Comes to the Big Bend
“A kidnapping, pursuit, escape, vigilante justice, and vivid scenes of brutal trench warfare, Grey serves up a gripping tale.” —Publishers Weekly
