Valley of Wild Horses
Información sobre este audiolibro
In spite of becoming known as the most successful author of stories of the old West, Zane Grey did get criticized. One New York literary critic said, “Grey possesses no merit whatsoever either in style or in substance.” Another scathingly wrote, “The substance of any two Zane Grey books could be put on the back of a postage stamp.” Such remarks resulted from envy of his success. This book has all the ingredients of cowboys, horses, boots, and spurs, in a period of lawlessness that often brought on gunfights in those days. The cowboy hero is Panhandle Smith, known as Pan, as he grew to be wild and free virtually from childhood. The tale prompts seeing, hearing, and feeling what it was like in those bygone days.

Zane Grey ® (1872–1939), born in Ohio, was practicing dentistry in New York when he and his wife published his first novel. Grey presented the West as a moral battleground in which his characters are destroyed because of their inability to change or are redeemed through a final confrontation with their past. The man whose name is synonymous with Westerns made his first trip west in 1907 at age thirty-five. More than 130 films have been based on his work.
