[Philip · Rating 4 out of 5]

The only knowledge of Zane Grey was when I was just a lad, watching the Zane Grey Theatre on television. Now, finishing this work, gave me as well as other readers an insight to the best American Sportsman ever. What a refreshing account of a by gone time when the wilds of America, South America, New Zealand, Canada and many other locales that Zane Grey perfected his never ending love of the great outdoors and hunting and fishing. A true sportsman but more importantly a tale of one of the first environmentalists and his accounts of many expeditions with his son's and good friends that is unmatched in our polluted arenas of today's modern world. Go back into yesteryear to witness breath taking tales and accounts of this fantastic person who appreciated the beauty of his prey as well as the environmental surroundings of his trade. This novel was simply to good to put down but more importantly the education that was given in the fine art of fishing and hunting by this very accomplished writer and humanitarian, Zane Grey.
