{"product_id":"2940015526288","title":"The Last of the Plainsmen (Illustrated Edition)","description":"An outstanding true account of a trip made in 1909 by Zane Grey and a plainsman, Buffalo Jones, through the Grand Canyon to lasso a cougar. That's right lasso. Throw a rope around. That's equivalent to catching one by the tail.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis part of the west was relatively wild and untamed at this time. Wolves, wild horses, buffalo and other wildlife were quite prevalent, and the Indians were not that friendly.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis adventure would never make it to \"Animal Planet,\" or as a National Geographic special, because there is quite a lot of what we would consider cruelty to animals, but this is a true story, and life as it was at the turn of the last century. Parts of this story will offend the sensibilities of some, but it is a glimpse into a world that no longer exists. I was definitely drawn into this story, as I hope the [reader] will be. (Summary by Mike Vendetti)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis edition of the book contains the 26 original illustrations, rejuvenated.","brand":"New York: Outing Publishing Co., 1908","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47070945444080,"sku":"2940015526288","price":2.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940015526288_p0.jpg?v=1763949049","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940015526288","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
