en Limba Engleză Paperback – 22 ian 2019
Read the western classic that started it all. • Features an extended biography of the life and experiences of Pearl Zane Grey The definitive edition. Hop on board this galloping Western tale that touches on humanity, loyalty, religion and the conflicts of old-fashioned prejudice. Jane Withersteen is a young lady coming into her own within the confining limits afforded her within the polygamous Mormon church. She has a mind of her own, however. When the church's leader, Elder Tull makes his intention to take her as another one of his wives known, Jane is forced to come to grips with the inherent evil she has grown up turning a blind eye to. To this end, she turns to some of the church's most rabid enemies as an unlikely source of aid. With the church's ruthless methods of dealing with dissenters being no secret, the stakes are high for those willing to show any signs of rebellion. Follow Jane as she wages a war for her very own salvation from the clutches of a sickly society. She is accompanied by a handful of friends facing their own particular challenges with the society's prejudice. Will their blooming youth, adventurous spirits, unshakable loyalties, and irrepressible ambitions overcome the icy-hearted obstinacy before it's too late?

Notă biografică

Pearl Zane Grey was an American author and dentist known for his novels and stories. He was born on January 31, 1872, in Zanesville, Ohio. He was the fourth son born to Alice "Allie" Josephine Zane and Lewis M. Gray. His mother was a Quaker immigrant whose forefather Robert Zane came to the American colonies in 1673. His father was a dentist. Grey studied dentistry from the University of Pennsylvania and completed his graduation in 1896. He got married to Lina Roth also known as Dolly in 1905. He had anger issues, depression and suffered mood swings which affected his life. And so, Grey spent most of his time away from the family, while Dolly managed his career and raised their three children. Their family moved to California in 1918 and settled in Altadena, California in 1920 in a home they named as Zane Grey Estate. Grey continued writing during 1930s and was in great depression. From 1925 to his death in 1939 he travelled away from his family exploring the unspoiled lands, particularly the islands of the South Pacific, New Zealand and Australia. He died on October 23, 1939, aged 67 at his home in Altadena, California due to heart attack.
