The Friday 56: Explore a Glimpse into 'The Lost Wagon Train' by Zane Grey

Every Friday, I have the pleasure of sharing a snippet or two from my reading adventures—whether it’s from a book I’m currently diving into, a future pick waiting on my shelf, or a delightful surprise from my library. I’ll link this post to The Friday 56 meme, hosted by My Head Full of Books .  Today, I'm excited to share a two-sentence excerpt from The Lost Wagon Train by Zane Grey (1872-1939). This first-edition hardcover, published by Grosset & Dunlap in 1936, features a story that originally appeared in Cosmopolitan magazine back in 1932. While I can't recall where or when I found this book (missing its original dust jacket), it has been in my possession for quite some time. The last wagons came lumbering up to be halted by the wide barricade. Stover, with other teamsters, including his two men, came thumping forward. ╌ page 56,  The Lost Wagon Train ⁓B.J. Burgess
