Ken Ward in the Jungle [Paperback]

Zane Grey (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: April 2004

1912. One of Zane Grey's Ken Ward series of books for boys. A great adventure read from the great author of Western fiction. The book begins: What a change from the Arizona desert! The words broke from the lips of Ken Ward as he leaned from the window of the train which was bearing his brother and himself over the plateau to Tampico in Tamaulipas, the southeastern state of Mexico. He had caught sight of a river leaping out between heavily wooded slopes and plunging down in the most beautiful waterfall he had ever seen.

4.0 out of 5 stars Not typical Grey, August 5, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Ken Ward in the Jungle (Mass Market Paperback)

Although this book is not the typical Grey Western/Pioneer novel, it carries many of the charactics that earmark it as a genuine Grey. The adventerous Ken Ward, his rambumctious brother Hal, and few new characters guide you on an exciting journey through the jungle. Grey, as usual, decribes the jungle in a manner such as to make one think they are there. Although off the beaten Grey path, this book will be pleasurable for the Grey fan, or any other reader.

This review is from: Ken Ward in the Jungle (Hardcover)

I recently discovered Zane Grey's books. I, of course, knew of his name but didn't think I would be interested in his books thinking they were mainly for men or boys. I have been delighted with his style of writing and his adventures so described in detail you believe you are there.
