10/23/1939 Zane Grey's West
On this day in 1939, Zane Grey died. Fifty-six of his eighty-nine books are
westerns; many of them are not just shoot-em-ups but, as here in The U.P. Trail,
observe and lament the "many shining bands of steel across the plains and
mountains, many stations and hamlets and cities, a growing and marvelous
prosperity from timber, mines, farms, and in the distant end -- a gutted West."
