The young runaway (Zane Grey)

Zane Grey was one of the first millionaire authors. With his veracity and emotional intensity, he connected with millions of readers worldwide, during peacetime and war, and inspired many Western writers who followed him. That work is widely considered the greatest Western ever written, and Grey remains one of the most famous authors of the genre. Cattle rustling was on the rise in the town of Randall, Wyoming and the new people Martha and Andrew join the ranchers in their fight to protect their livestock. This novel is especially rich in Grey’s masterful description of, and feelings for, the beauty and strength of the Wyoming countryside.
