Roping Lions in the Grand Canyon

Roping Lions in the Grand Canyon

A true story of Zane Grey's experiences capturing mountain lions alive, which makes ordinary hunting with guns seem, in contrast, about as exciting as a Sunday picnic. Everyone has heard of roping cattle and wild horses, but roping mountain lions on their home ground is another matter. Zane Grey, with four Western rangers, a Navajo Indian, and a pack of very lovable dogs (who are as much real individuals as their masters) set off on this adventure hunting with camera and lasso. Often funny, sometimes nearly tragic, always wildly exciting, the account of how they captured six of the tawny, fiery-eyed demons which infest the bottom of the Grand Canyon, and got them into camp alive and growling, will enthrall the great host of Zane Gray's readers, and everyone else who likes an usual yarn full of courage and thrilling action.
Zane Grey (1872-1939) was an American author best known for his popular novels presenting an idealized image of the Old West. Grey is best known for his novel "Riders of the Purple Sage."
