Grey, Zane. TALES OF LONELY TRAILS (New York: Harper & Brothers, 1922) First Edition. 8vo, green cloth with paste-down photograph on upper board. Gilt lettering on board and spine. 394 A very fine copy. A memoir of months of outdoor adventure in the American west by leading western author Zane Grey. It covers such topics as roping lions in the Grand Canyon and bear hunting in Tonto Basin and a journey through death valley. Accompanying Zane throughout this narrative are Buffalo Jones, Romer C. Grey and ZaneÕs young son Romer. GreyÕs primary interest in writing these great outdoor works was to spark interest in AmericaÕs great wilderness areas and National Parks, and thus he hoped to encourage others to preserve them. The period of his writing coincides with when many of the great National Parks we now take for granted were only coming into being. Without the influence of men like Grey one wonders how much lesser our modern America might have been. Price: USD 450.00 other currencies   order no. 12530    inquire
