FIRST EDITION. The Last of the Plainsmen recounts the adventures of the famed frontier scout and lawman William F. “Buffalo” Jones, whom Zane Grey accompanied on a hunting expedition in northern Arizona. The book proved Grey’s first major success and helped introduce the themes of frontier adventure and the mythic American West that would define much of his later work. Myers, p.3.
