About this ebook

Grey's novels however denigrated by critics as empurpled froths of 'virgins, villains and varmints' were only part of the allure that fixed his name in the hearts of millions of Americans. Zane Grey was a self-made model of rugged rural virtue overimbued with what the critic Heywood Broun acidly called "the sanity, the strength and the wholesomeness" of his novels; a teetotaler opposed to the "jiggle and toddle and wiggle" of jazz-age dancing; and a staunch champion of clean outdoor living and hard work and righteous, simple codes of conduct. The New York TimesThis selection specially chosen by the literary critic August Nemo, contains the following stories:Amber's MirageThe RangerDon: The Story Of A Lion DogThe Wolf TrackerLure of the RiverA Missouri SchoolmarmMonty Price's Nightingale
