Description

This is my first Zane Grey book and I found it enjoyable. I had read a short story of his in Outdoor Life magazine, I think, when I was a youngster and I've searched for it fruitlessly over the last 40-odd years. I was anticipating a Zane Grey Western novel when I pulled this out of my wife's bookshelf last week. Instead I found a travel book describing a magnificient trip and hunt into and around the Grand Canyou, mostly on the Utah side. The results of the epic journey and hunt are exciting and believeable. I found Grey flowery and a bit too purple at times in his descriptions, but a fine teller of a rip-snorter of a tale. It's a delight and I'll have to look for more, perhaps a novel, finally.
