Continuing to tell the stories of the Wild West and the men and women who tamed it, J Rodney Turner presents the first in a series of Zane Grey titles with The Last of the Plainsmen - the story of how Grey accompanied the great Buffalo Jones on an epic hunt for many of the wild North American beasts known for their strength and agility, not to kill but to tame. Most importantly among these creatures is the American buffalo and his effort to save them from being wiped off the great western plains.

Zane Grey's first western story, written in 1909, is based on a real character, Buffalo Jones. Grey's descriptive art was just beginning in this story. But he brings color and life to the area between the Grand Canyon and Utah. The story follows Grey, Jones, and a company of colorful characters on a "hunt" bent on capture rather than shooting.
