From back cover: In Riders of the Purple Sage, the most famous novel of the American West, Grey creates a hero of epic proportions, a villian of legendary evil, and a world in which the landscape is rendered with such force that it seems to experess thoughts and feelings, to become a character in its own right. Indeed, Riders of the Purple Sage derives much of its depth and power from passions whose forbidden and overwhelming nature cannot be expressed by human beings and are therefore embodied in the natural world.
