THE U. P. TRAIL....READ THIS BOOK...AND YOU MAY TELL YOURSELF..."THIS IS THE GREATEST BOOK I HAVE EVER READ"! THIS NOVEL FOCUSES ON THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE UNION-PACIFIC RAILROAD! 365 PAGES IN PRINT! A TRULY INSPIRING STORY!!
This novel has something incredibly passionate and elemental about it that not only elevates it above Grey's other numerous titles, including Riders Of The Purple Sage, but makes it a giant in its genre. Grey himself says in his dedication that "it is the book for which I have written all the others."
The book's scope is akin to a giant mirror being held up to reflect, in one grand and allegorical image, the breadth of the human experience in the building of the American West, and the destruction of its frontier culture. It's a tale of heroism, virtue, sacrifice, greed, personal ruin, redemption, betrayal, saintliness, violence, bigotry, lust, depravity, nobility, and so many other aspects of human nature it's hard to list them all here. It is filled with unforgettable characters who represent every social group involved with both the building of the railroad itself, and the white man's ambition to expand the nation to the Pacific coast. Some of the incidents and moments created by Grey will remain with readers long after they have finished the book, if not forever. And central to it all is the tortured story of the lovers Neale and Allie.
