Great collection of short stories.

It's a great collection of love stories. It's different from regular western books with little of the typical gun fighting and violence.

Incredible

Beautifully written and done in a way that keeps you waiting .I love Zane Grey ,his ease in writing leaves me completely speechless

Enjoyable collection

The Ranger: Felt like an episode of a TV western or even a Randolph Scott movie. I could actually see Scott in the title role here.

Canyon Walls: My favorite of the collection. The narration for “Sam Hill” wasn’t the best, but I did enjoy the back and forth of the love story and the main story arc.

Avalanche: took a surprisingly serious turn in act three but ultimately had a predictable conclusion. Better than I thought it was going to be though.

Missouri: An interesting idea for a story where a mystery writer gets a schoolteacher from the east to move out west and the search for the true author. Glad at least one of the overzealous cowboys got what he deserved though.

Several aspects of these stories are of their time of course, but if you accept that there’s always a good time to be had with Zane Grey stories.

Fun silly love stories

The narrator does justice ti these stories, with wonderful character voices. Great to listen to while cleaning. Middle story a bit sad. All predictable but fun and light.

Lighthearted Etertainment

Great blend of comedy, conflicting emotions, and depiction of ranch life in the time setting.
