    About this audiobook

    The Yellow Mine Saloon was like every gambling dive Panhandle Smith had seen from Montana to Mexico. Piles of gold and greenbacks littered the roulette and faro tables. Drunken miners stamped to and from the long mahogany bar.

    An odor of whiskey mingled with the thick tobacco haze. Suddenly, one of the gamblers turned, and Smith recognized Dick Hardman, the man he had followed a thousand miles — to kill.

    Zane Grey

    American author (Pearl Zane Grey) is best known as a pioneer of the Western literary genre, which idealized the Western frontier and the men and women who settled the region. Following in his father’s footsteps, Grey studied dentistry while on a baseball scholarship to the University of Pennsylvania. Grey’s athletic talent led to a short career in the American minor league before he established his dentistry practice. As an outlet to the tedium of dentistry, Grey turned to writing, and finally abandoned his dental practice to write full time. Over the course of his career Grey penned more than ninety books, including the best-selling Riders of the Purple Sage. Many of Grey’s novels were adapted for film and television. He died in 1939.

      Great!

      Great!

      A quick and entertaining read. I only wish that the story could go on for another hundred pages or so, I feel such a connection to the characters and wish I could watch them start their new homesteads.
