Betty Zane, published in 1903, was Zane Grey¿s first novel. It tells the romanticized story of Grey¿s great-great-aunt, who made a miraculous dash under fire to save a frontier fort from Indian attack.Fort Henry sat on the site of present-day Wheeling, West Virginia. One of a series of fortifications built to protect frontier settlers, it was commanded by Colonel Ebenezer Zane, and was the center of a small community where Colonel¿s brothers and his sister Betty lived. The fort survived two sieges by Native Americans, first in 1777 and again in 1782. In the 1782 siege the attacking tribes were joined by British soldiers; and it is this siege, and the events leading up to it, that are recounted in Betty Zane.Grey claimed to derive the facts in his story from the personal notebook, preserved in his family, of his great-grandfather Ebenezer Zane, but it¿s impossible for readers to distinguish historical fact, the supposed contents of the notebook, and the Grey¿s own imagination. Certainly some aspects of the tale, like Betty¿s romantic involvements, are entirely fictionalized. But equally certainly, other major aspects of the tale, in particular Betty¿s heroism during the siege, come straight from the pages of history.

American sportsmen don't need an introduction to Buffalo Jones. He spent almost his whole life pursuing wild animals after being born on the Illinois prairie sixty-two years ago. It has been a chase that has been driven by a single passion-almost an obsession-to catch alive rather than to kill that has given it an unwavering vigor and unbreakable purpose. Every well-known wild animal that is native to western North America has been captured and had its will broken by him. He found killing disgusting. Even though he detested the sight of a sporting rifle, he had little choice but to feed the caravans traveling the plains with buffalo meat for years due to needing it. When he finally realized that the noble creatures would eventually go extinct, he shattered his rifle over a wagon wheel and resolved to safeguard the species. He toiled for ten years, hunting down, seizing, and domesticating buffalo; for this, the West made him famous and gave him the moniker Preserver of the American Bison. Buffalo Jones steadily moved westward as civilization encroached on the plains; today, he resides on a remote plateau bordered by the desert on the north rim of the Grand Canyon in Arizona. His buffalo remain as free as ever on the undulating plains, grazing alongside mustangs and deer.
