Zane Grey

Zane Grey (1872–1939) was an American writer best known for western literature. Born and raised in Ohio, Grey was one of five children from an English Quaker family. As a youth, he developed an interest in sports, history and eventually writing. He attended University of Pennsylvania where he studied dentistry, while balancing his creative endeavors. One of his first published pieces was the article “A Day on the Delaware" (1902), followed by the novels Betty Zane (1903) and The Spirit of the Border (1906). His career spanned several decades and was often inspired by real-life settings and events.

Reviews for Rangers of the Lone Star

[Harry Cook · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Zane Grey is what made this book so wonderful. I love that he was such a romantic. I would have never guessed it.

This is my 21st book of Zane’s and I hope to listen to and or read every book that he wrote.

There is a strange pull from his book on me that I have yet to recognize. But I’m working on that

It was somewhat different than most of grey's books. Lesslanddiscriped.

Another fine work by a master of Western fiction. The narrator is excellent, except for two annoyances, both are pronunciations: throughout the book he pronounces Pecos as Pee-kohs rather than pey-kohs (I've lived in West Texas...it is pey-kohs) the second is his pronunciation of the word chaps...I grew up ranching and never once heard a cowboy call them chaps. The "genuine" pronunciation is shaps: it's a short version of the Spanish chaparajos...they protect you from chaparral, both words pronounced with an "sh" sound. Other than those pet peeves, his performance was amazing.
