A rider had just left her and it was his message that held her thoughtful and almost sad, awaiting the churchmen who were coming to resent and attack her right to befriend a Gentile.

Dene's out-laws are after...

Really, gross That said, here in "Riders of the Purple Sage" -- and in the sequel, "The Rainbow Trail" -- the Mormon men take it on the chin. They're heavies, here -- villains who use their religion as an excuse for greed and lust. Great adventure for those who don't mind thinking about the development of...

His first-published book, "Betty Zane" "(1803), " was inspired by the true story of Revolutionary War frontier heroism in his family. Grey's early books about his own family were not commercially successful. Beginning with his first Western novel, "The...
