The Rainbow Trail (Barnes & Noble Library of Essential Reading) »

Born in 1875, Pearl Zane Grey was raised in Zanesville, Ohio, a town founded by his mother’s family, and graduated from the University of Pennsylvania in 1896. His passion for the American West was aroused in 1907 when Grey had an opportunity to tour the West with Buffalo Jones, a longtime hunter and adventurer. He published a total of eighty-five books before dying on October 23, 1939, at his home in Altadena, California.

When John Shefford sees a rainbow full of promises, he journeys toward a wild canyon full of secrets. On his way, he must enter a Mormon village, where intruders face certain death. The sequel to Riders of the Purple Sage, this western tells the story of the new generations of Mormons who will no longer condone polygamy.
