8vo. Illustrations by Arthur I. Keller. Original tan pictorial cloth stamped in red, black and gilt.

FIRST EDITION of the first true fictional western that paved the way for Zane Grey and other western novelists. “Although a novel, this book probably created more impressions of what a cowboy was like – even among cowboys – than any other work, fact or fiction.” (Reese, Six Score 116). A FINE COPY.
