This sequel to Zane Grey's enormously popular Riders of the Purple Sage picks up ten years after the events of the previous novel. Tragedy has befallen the community of Surprise Valley, and changing views among the largely Mormon populace have begun to create rifts in the community. The Rainbow Trail includes plenty of the adventure and romance that fans of Zane Grey's work have come to love.
The Rainbow Trail is the sequel to Riders of the Purple Sage. The family is trapped in the secret canyon, but a way in and out has been discovered. This is a get adventure and love story. Zane Grey at his best ( )
Not nearly as good as Riders of the Purple Sage, but in the end it was worth it to get the continuation of the story of Jane and Lassiter. The main problem was the "hero" Shefford. He doesn't play well in this day and age ... more than once, I was growling at him to grow a pair. He was just a big ole coward by today's standards. But yet again, the descriptive passages were simply breathtaking. Between the harrowing climb, up and down treacherous cliffs and the ride down the Colorado River in the Grand Canyon, the descriptions were riveting. Who knew that I would start getting into westerners at this point in my life? Gotta love those public domain books! ( )

In his heart there would never change or die memories of the wild uplands, of the great towers and walls, of the golden sunsets on the canon ramparts, of the silent, fragrant valleys where the cedars and sego-lilies grew, of those starlit nights when his love and faith awake, of grand and lonely Nonnezoshe, of that red, sullen, thundering, mysterious Colorado River, of a wonderful Indian and a noble Mormon - of all that was embodied for him in the meaning of the rainbow trail.
