GREY, Zane (1872-1939). Thundering Herd. New York: Harper & Brothers, 1925. [WITH:] Ken Ward in the Jungle. New York: Harper & Brothers Publishers, 1912. First editions, one inscribed. Thundering Herd is the first edition, first printing, with a presentation inscription from the author to his son: "To Romer / from his Dad / Zane Grey." Ken Ward in the Jungle is the story of Ken Ward’s adventures outside of Arizona in Tamaulipas, Mexico. Zane Grey's writing was prolific—he often completed three novels a year—but his publisher would issue only one at a time. As a result, twenty-five of his novels were published posthumously. Together, two volumes. Octavo. Thundering Herd: 3 black-and-white illustrated plates. Original decorated publisher's cloth (minor wear); pictorial dust jacket (some chips and tears at folds and edges of jacket, restoration to lower edge of rear panel, some soiling). Provenance: Romer Zane Grey (1909-1976, the author's son; presentation inscription on front flyleaf). * Ken Ward in the Jungle: Pictorial cloth (a little scuffing, some foxing to page edges); pictorial dust jacket (chipping to spine panel ends and panels, with two chips to front panel affecting title); custom box. Provenance: John Wagon (ownership inscription dated 20 May 1918).
