Ilustration Supposing Books Rogue River Feud
In the first pages of Rogue River Feud, Grey paints a tantalizing picture of the Rogue from its headwaters to where it spills into the Pacific Ocean.Zane Grey’s vigorous storytelling and portrayal of ... the wild make this novel one of his best. There is a deep emotional feeling for nature in the raw, for the great salmon runs, and for the clashes of men fighting for gold.
Along the notorious Rogue River, gold seekers, crazed by the discovery of nuggets that made them rich overnight, are at war with one another. The river itself swarms with salmon, bringing along with them another kind of wealth and violent fighting between fishermen and the fish-packing monopoly. Into this scene comes Keven Bell, returning to face life after being handicapped by a disfiguring wound he received in World War I. Keven teams up with a broken-down fisherman and boatbuilder. When they try to buck the salmon-packing monopoly, they encounter violence and trickery; their boat is sunk and they are left to swim for their lives.
Keven is tended to by Beryl, the daughter of a gold miner. His convalescence is slow, but the autumn days, fishing and camping, make a woodland dream of romance. But no sooner has an operation straightened out Keven’s injuries than he is framed on a charge of murder in the salmon-packing war. Keven must carry on as best he can, along with what help Beryl and her old father can give, to clear his name and ensure his and Beryl’s safety on the turbulent Rogue.

Classic Zane GreyAny fan of classic westerns should read this! My personal favorite Zane Grey. You won't be disappointed. Check it out!Rogue River Feud is one of Zane Grey's least known novels. This is, perhaps, because it isn't a Western-it's a Northwestern. The Rogue River in Southern Oregon is the main character. Zane Grey had a cabin on the Rogue and his attachment and fascination with this epic river makes it the primary focus of the book. For this reason, the book is a great read for anyone who has been on, around, along, over or in this wonderful wild stream. There are, of course, characters and a semblance of a plot.
There is a war between gold miners in the Rouge River valley following World War I. A wounded Kevin Bell returns from the war in Europe and teams up with a fisherman to take advantage of the salmon fishing but finds no peace. An old fashioned family friendly book.
A young man injured in training for WW1 returns home seriouslyImpaired to family, friends, and through many trials and tribulations is rehabilitated, healed in body and soul, and United with old and new friends, plus a beautiful wife.
Pearl Zane Grey was an American author best known for his popular adventure novels and stories that presented an idealized image of the rugged Old West. As of June 2007, the Internet Movie Database credits Grey with 110 films, one TV episode, and a series, Dick Powell's Zane Grey Theater based loosely on his novels and short stories.
