Riders of the Purple Sage Zane Grey's most enduring classic--the book that invented the myth of the American West. In the little village of Cottonwoods, Utah, Mormon rancher Jane Withersteen endures... This description may be from another edition of this product.
This mass market paperback is the first time the greatest novel of the American West , Rider of the Purple Sage, has been teemed with its sequel, The Rainbow Trail; and it was about time! Without the sequel you don't know the finish of the first book. There is little to be said about Riders that hasn't already been said, as it was ground breaking work when it was first published in 1912, and Zane Grey's descriptive ability to show you the land of canyons and sage slopes is beyond belief if you haven't been there and seen it for your self which the vast majority of the people had not in 1912--an era before roads, movies or TV--even pictorial magazines. This edition has large enough print for even my tired old eyes, and opens easily enough even though it is 680 pages. A great great addition to any library of Zane Grey's work to have and own.
