On his first trip west Zane Grey met Buffalo Jones, who had not only been witness to the great herds of buffalo that once roamed the Great Plains, but had participated in their destruction. In 1923, Grey decided to write the epic story of those thundering herds, the great hunt that decimated them, and the battle between the Plains Indians and the buffalo hunters. At last that magnificent, elegiac panorama is being published just as Grey wrote it.
