Description

An Easterner with more inheritance than experience, Ernest Selby arrives in 1930s Arizona to take over a vast ranch he has inherited—only to discover that ownership means nothing without grit, knowledge, and trust earned on the range. Choosing to hide his identity, he throws himself into hard labor as a cowhand, learning the land’s historic rhythms while enduring the dangers and isolation that test every newcomer. As rustling and unrest threaten the ranch’s future, Ernest must prove himself not through status, but through courage, competence, and a growing understanding of frontier life. With Zane Grey’s classic, fast-moving Western storytelling, this tale blends rugged adventure with themes of self-reinvention, honor, and the cost of belonging in a harsh, beautiful country.
