For a first novel, The Last Ranger as is published here, but known as Betty Zane when originally published in 1903, has to rank as one of the best ever done by an inexperienced writer. And why it was rejected so many times is still a question many people must ask themselves after reading this book. Guided by a journal left by his ancestors Zane Grey crafted one of the most notable works about one of the final battles of the American Revolution. Along the way, the reader will encounter many members of the Zane family, Lew Wetzel, and the Girty brothers, all real people; and Betty Zane, the heroine who saves Fort Henry. This book gives you a feeling of what it would have been like to live at that time and in that place. It is only fitting that such a book was the beginning of a literary career unsurpassed in the genre of historical romance, not "westerns" as most would have you believe. Zane Grey wrote romances which happened to be set in the WEST--an area officially declared closed by the U S government about 1890. So by the time Zane Grey began to write about it, a feeling of nostalgia had overcome the country and he simply fed that emotion becoming the most popular and highest paid author to ever live. Read this story of the beginning of our country and its two follow up books, The Spirit of the Border, and The Last Trail. I think you will enjoy them immensely.

Bringing our customers the best quality books for an even better price was our goal.We now occupy four storefronts with approx. 7000 square feet and stock well over 200,000 items. We process approx 150-400 used books each day through our trade credit program. New items hit the shelves each and every day! Through it all we still strive for the same goal.
