About This Item
New York: Harper & Brothers, 1932. Hardcover. Very Good/Good. First edition. Gift inscription and ink number on the spine, some foxing on the boards, very good in worn, good or better Grosset and Dunlap dust jacket (as it came to us - we think it likely that Harper sold remaindered copies of the first to Grosset, a publisher best known for reprints, and it was issued with their jacket) with a small paper label on the spine.
Reviews
On Jan 18 2021, a reader said:
To compare father and son can be a dangerous and delicate subject. Or to tread on the reputation of the father to advance yourself is likewise a thing too often abused. Romer Zane Grey did accompany his famous father on many of the father's adventures, and did write the daily comic strips which bore his father's name, according to various sources. But whether or not he actually wrote all of the stories which were published under his name in the "new" Zane Grey Western Magazine from which these stories were collected, is subject to debate, as there is probably no one living who can tell us. Regardless of that, these stories are entertaining, featuring characters Zane Grey created, and that is enough.
