Description
When the beautiful but headstrong Betty Zane went to live with her brother, Colonel Ebenezer Zane, at Fort Henry on the Ohio frontier, she had no way of knowing what her presence there would mean to the settlement in the days to come. She also had no way of knowing what it would mean to the handsome stranger who had just arrived from Virginia, determined to make Fort Henry his new home, as well. First published in 1903, Betty Zane was Zane Grey?s first novel and the first volume in his Frontier Trilogy. The book tells the thrilling true story of Grey?s own great-great-aunt, Elizabeth Zane, called Betty by her family. The youngest member of the renowned Zane family of Virginia, Betty, along with her famous older brothers, helped to settle America?s Western frontier on the Ohio River in the 1700s. History has credited Betty with helping to win the last battle of the Revolutionary War in 1782. This Youth Edition was edited with young readers in mind, but adults will enjoy this heroic tale, too.
