關於作者

Zane Grey (1872-1939) was a preeminent American author best known for his popular adventure novels and stories that presented an idealized image of the American frontier. Born Pearl Zane Gray in Zanesville, Ohio, he later altered his name to 'Zane Grey.' He attended the University of Pennsylvania on a baseball scholarship, studying dentistry, but his true passion lay in writing and the great outdoors. Grey's adventure with the West began with a trip to Arizona's Grand Canyon in 1907, igniting a love for the landscape that would permeate his work. His first Western, 'Heritage of the Desert' (1910), became a bestseller, establishing him as a dominant figure in the Western genre. Grey's novels were characterized by vivid imagery, a flair for storytelling, and a deep appreciation for nature. Perhaps the most notable among his extensive bibliography, which includes over 90 books, is 'Riders of the Purple Sage' (1912), a work that contributed to shaping the conventions of the Western genre. In 'To The Last Man: A Story of the Pleasant Valley War (Western Classic),' Grey explores themes of vengeance and survival set against the backdrop of Arizona's Pleasant Valley War, showcasing his ability to weave historical events into compelling narratives. Grey's works have been adapted into numerous films and TV shows, further cementing his legacy as a cornerstone of Western literature. Passionate about conservation, Grey's writings often reflected his advocacy for the preservation of the American wilderness, a testament to his enduring influence on both literature and environmental awareness.
