Autor Zane Grey
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 10 aug 2020
This book contains Zane Grey's classic western novel, "The Last of the Plainsmen". Buffalo Jones embarks on his last mission in this exciting western classic. The character of Buffalo Jones was based on Charles Jesse "Buffalo" Jones, a famous western hunter and guide who inspired Grey to organise a lion-hunting excursion. It was this lion-hunting trip that would form the basis for this exciting fictional tale - full of wild beasts, Indians, and the treacherous travails of a wild landscape unmolested by civilization. The chapters of this book include: "The Arizona Desert", "The Range", "The Last Herd", "The Trail", "Oak Spring", "The White Mustang", "Snake Gulch", "Naza! Naza! Naza!", "The Land of the Musk-Ox", "Success and Failure", "On To the Siwash", "Old Tom", etcetera. Pearl Zane Grey (1872 - 1939) was an American author famous for writing novels that would become the foundation for the Western genre in literature and the arts. Many vintage texts such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive, and it is with this in mind that we are republishing this book now, in an affordable, high-quality, modern edition. It comes complete with a specially commissioned biography of the author.

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.
