Very Good in a Very Good dustjacket. Orange boards. Both the spine and the decorative front board are stamped in black. 338pps., with a number of line drawings by Robert Amick. Stated First Editon, however these Grosset & Dunlap issues are re-prints using the same printing plates as the Harper original. There is mild bumping to the tips and spine-ends and a light soil-mark on the front board. Also, there is a faint bit of foxing to the page-edges. Otherwise clean, tight, square, and bright. The text is in splendid condition; no reading wear and no previous ownership markings. The dustjacket, glossy in a mylar sleeve, has modest edgewear and a 1 1/2" closed tear at the bottom of the front panel. All in all, a very nice and colorfully jacketed copy of this early issue. ".A story of the old West -- of the lawless days of cattle-stealing and the thrilling pursuit and capture of wild horses -- is full of the intensity and dash which made up life then and which Zane Grey alone can bring to life in print. Unjustly driven away from the home ranch and from his sweetheart by his father's displeasure, Ben Ide seeks refuge in the remote fastnesses of Forlorn River. There, with two companions, he follows the trail of a troop of wild horses led by the beautiful wild stallion, California Red. Suspected of cattle-thieving by the ranchers, Ben finally succeeds in running the real thieves to earth -- but the fight which follows terminates in an exciting and arousing surprise."
