A very attractive copy internally fresh and clean the hinges solid the binding attractive and in very good condition with just a bit of mellowing to the orange and gilt on the spine panel and some minor edge rubbing. Zane Grey's first true Western novel and a much nicer copy than is typically found. Although Grey had already published several books dealing with the American frontier but they were set in the Ohio River Valley this was his first novel set in the spectacular landscapes of the Southwest; the setting that would make him famous. The National Park Service calls it his "first real success." HERITAGE OF THE DESERT also established Grey as a commercially successful novelist and helped launch his extraordinary career as one of the most widely read American writers of the twentieth century. His novels sparked throughout both the United States and Europe a great interest in the landscape and culture of the American Southwest. The appeal of these novels is as strong today as ever. The novel also helped establish the modern Western formula. The story combines romance cattle rustling violence frontier justice and the transformative power of wilderness. These became characteristic elements of most subsequent Western fiction. Harper and Brothers hardcover
