Customer Reviews
The Hash Knife Outfit
What a great story! Zane Grey is a wonderful storyteller. I appreciate how he makes the subject he is writing about come alive. You get a real sense of what life and nature was like in those times. I loved seeing through Zane Greys eyes what the west and particularly Arizona looked like during that slice of time. I appreciate that this Polish translation is well done. There are some problems in the translations. The language and culture of the west was sometimes not interpreted accurately. For example, the use of some phrases and the vernacular of how cowboys speak didn’t fit together. I’m no expert but a strong fan who has read most of his books. This book conveys the voice of Zane Grey and his love of the west. Kudos!
