📱 eBook en inglés FORLORN RIVER (SUMMARIZED EDITION)

Forlorn River condenses Zane Greys mature Western into a taut tale of ranching peril and moral trial on the Great Basins rim. A young cattlemans bid for lawful work collides with rumor, rustlers, and range monopolies; loyalties coalesce around an enigmatic gunman—later famed as Nevada—while a quiet romance tests silence and fidelity. Greys hallmark mix of panoramic description, brisk action, and ethical melodrama balances river valleys and sagebrush mesas with procedural attention to tracking and stock-work, refining the late‑1920s Western toward psychological and ecological texture. A former dentist turned bestseller, Grey drew on long Southwestern travels, ranch stays, and meticulous field journals that seeded his scenes. His conservationist bent and fascination with the clash between open range and consolidating capital shape the plots pressures. His serial imagination also anticipates Nevadas rise as a mythic counterbalance. Recommended to readers of classic Westerns, landscape writing, and American popular fiction, Forlorn River offers romance braided with frontier suspense and a lucid study of loyalty under pressure. Begin here; the companion novel Nevada then feels like a necessary return.
