Introduction
These novels are the books that made Zane Grey
the most popular author of his time. Based upon his travels and
experiences in the American West, Grey wrote novels that captured
the fancy of Americans everywhere and brought the American West
to the entire world. The Heritage of the Desert was the
book that vaulted Grey to prominence and began a prolific career
involving writing, adventuring, and movie making.
A Note on First Editions
There have been a few minor corrections made to
this page relating to the method of determining first editions.
Mr. Ed Myers of Country
Lane Books graciously pointed these out to us. Please forgive
us for any confusion this might have caused.
Mr. Myers is one
of the country's foremost experts on determining Zane Grey first
editions and for your benefit, you can purchase a copy of "A Bibliographical
Check List of the Writings of Zane Grey" from him directly. Click here for contact information.
Mr. Lloyd Rogers also published Zane
Grey First Editions, a good source of information for collectors
of First Editions..
