About The Man of the Forest by Zane Grey
From the fragments of a true legend of the old West. Zane Grey has built a mighty tale of the worst kind of enemies and the bravest kind of love. 'The Man of the forest', the best seller of Zane Grey, was first published in 1920 in New York (Printed in 1919). This novel was adapted for 1933 film directed by Henry Hathaway. It stars Randolph Scott and Verna Hillie. The film is also known as Challenge of the Frontier. Milt Dale, lives alone in a camp in the wilderness called Paradise Park. He prefers the company of bears, cougars, and wolves to that of the surrounding ranchers and troublemakers. But one day he overhears a conversation that changes his life and convinces him to leave his wild paradise to save a young woman from certain troubles. Snake Anson has planned to get his hands on her uncle’s ranch by getting rid of Helen. For those who have known and loved these works in the past, this is an invitation to reunite with old friends in a fresh new format.

This is the first book by Zane Gray that I've read. It was written almost a hundred years ago; it's not historical fiction, it is the real thing!There are a couple of reasons I love this book:
First of all, Zane Grey is an AMAZING writer who is adept at painting vivid scenery, emotions, and situations with words. Few authors write with this style now. Values are a portrayal of what society needs today.
Second, the hero and heroine as well as other characters are portrayed as strong, believable people. They don't have psychological hang ups that keep them from progressing. They know what they want, what needs to be done, and then they go get it.
The hero is a clean, strong, decent human being. He is not egotistical, nor is he too good to be true. Just real. The heroine was wonderful because she is a girl who knows herself. She is not just a female who needs a man. She knows her female role and plays it well, supporting other characters and encouraging her man.
This book is not overly romantic for those who like mushy stuff, but the romantic suspense for a happy ending is worth the read. I will definitely read more by Zane Grey.

The Man of the Forest By Zane Grey Illustrated edition by Zane Grey Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
My husband and I have been reading Zane Grey Novels lately and have fallen in love with his way of writing. This book was fun and enjoyable to read... with action and so many mental images of the surroundings. A little slow here and there because of all the visual and emotional images he gives ... but wonderful because his writing makes you feel like you are living the story. He writes from real life stories and from his life because he lived in the West in the early 1900's. If you like stories of the old west, with not too much violence, Zane Grey is the author for you. There is always a little romance along with the cattlemen, rustlers, ranchers, "bad guys", and just "plain folk".
read this book at least 5 times and have had a paperback copy for 15 years or so. once it became available on fire I bought it since the paperback is starting to yellow.
Great story written way early in this century. The ideas of normal are seriously outdated but seems pretty to to life for me.
One of my favorite Zane Gray novels. Milt Dale lives a quiet life in a secluded paradise area of the forest with his cougar Tom and various other animals. He is out and takes refuge in an old cabin and hear a gang talk about kidnapping a land owner's daughter who was coming out to help run the place. Their boss wants the land and figure if she can't be there to help, they can take over the spread. You fall in love with the spunk of Helen's sister who comes out with her. There is the typical love story and ending of his novels but each story is worth reading. This is one of my favorites.
I have only just started to read Zane Grey novels and I am very excited that I discovered this author. I live in Arizona and have explored many of the settings for his stories and with his detailed descriptions I can easily imagine that I am back in these scenes. In The Man of the Forest he has character development. He has many different characters in this story from the mountain man to the Eastern heiress and her little sister to the Morman cowboys to the Mexican shepherds and sleazy villains. And, his descriptions and development do not end at landscapes and characters but to action as well. It just takes your breath away when the heiress is being chased through the high desert and forest for 3 days in a stage coach and then on horse back. Also, the most amazing description that I can recall ever reading was the grizzly bear hunt. Both of these are "hair raising" darn right adventure. I truly believe that these novels should be resurrected and marketed for today's audience, but I also think that TV westerns like Bonanza and Gunsmoke should return as well. This novel is considered Zane Grey's fifth best novel of the over 55 novels he wrote by the Zane Grey's West Society and was written about 10 years into his career as a writer. I am looking forward to reading first through fourth.
Such a welcome change from the mysteries I'm used to reading. Can you imagine a book without any cuss words or graphic sex? As a whole, I think people were much better human beings back then. Sure you had the murderers and thieves and rustlers etc. but they were far outnumbered by the good and God fearing people. Many of those people learned to live with nature instead of destroy it. Reading a book like this almost makes me wish I'd lived in those times. This book was highly entertaining and suspenseful. If you like nature, animals, romance, and suspense and like to see the bad guy get his dues, I highly recommend this book.
Zane Grey's stories of the frontier were popular in a time period when the frontier had recently been declared "closed" by the US government, and we were becoming very rapidly an urban, industrial, technological society. Americans were nostalgic for self-governance, strong men and virtuous women, individuals striving hard against the forces of nature; and at the same time hoping for "civilization" and law in an unruly world. Grey was an easterner (some of his best novels were about the eastern forest frontier and young men testing themselves in baseball and other competitive sports) and had limited instinctive understanding for the plains and mountains of the western Indian and cattle country, but his characters were always well-drawn and deep, if often rather one-dimensional. The Man of the Forest is about two eastern sisters (east=Missouri in this case) moving to the southwest to take possession of a cattle ranch from their dying uncle, finding themselves tested and buffeted about in a war of wills and guns in a mostly wild territory. They learn the ways of the west and the virtues of the noble hunters and cowboys as well as the horrors of society on the edge of law and order. The hunter is one of the better characters in Grey's pantheon. Young men and women might be quite surprised at how deeply they can be affected by the values of a world that is on the verge of complete disappearance.
This is the first book by Zane Gray that I've read. It was written almost a hundred years ago; it's not historical fiction, it is the real thing!
