Betty Zane is the story of the first settlers in the Ohio Valley, and their fight for survival during the Revolutionary war. The British have organized and incited the various eastern tribes to attack American 'Rebels' in this lesser known theater of the war.

Betty is a fiery beauty, who's quest for romance with Alfred Clarke is interrupted time and again by Indian raids and battles. In an unexpected twist, it is Betty, who turns the tide at the final battle of Fort Henry.

Inspired by the life and adventures of his own great-great grandmother, Betty Zane was Zane Grey's first novel. This and the other two books in the "Ohio River Trilogy" his are considered some of Grey's best work.

Reseñas editoriales

After a period of minor league baseball, the establishment of a dental practice, and the settling of a rare paternity suit, the unhappy Zane Grey published a novel called Betty Zane. It was 1903 and this was the first of around 100 Grey books - and as many film adaptations - to come.

While Grey is primarily known for his westerns, Betty Zane, ponderously performed by Michael Pritchard, is a historical romance based on the real-life adventures of his own great-great ancestor, a heroine of the American Revolutionary War named Elizabeth Zane. Set in the Ohio Valley and featuring the Battle of Fort Henry as a turning point, Betty Zane tells the story of a fearless young woman falling in love and fighting Indians.

Enjoyed listening to this story of frontier adventure when the Appalachians were the great barrier between Native American lands and colonial settlers. High Victorian style and a little too plummy for me (esp the romance between Betty and her suitor), and the Indians are treated like near total caricatures…but with a pinch of historical salt you’ll probably enjoy the old style adventure that, in fact, happened in now Wheeling WV.

A good listen, skewed history

It was refreshing to listen to how it really was. Zane Grey was one of the best.

Great

I felt this story was both disjointed and misleading. While parts of its telling were historically intriguing, I feel his telling of Betty’s story was unfair to the toughness and side by side fighting ability of the pioneer women and patronizing of their true metal by insinuating a complete dependence on the men they so often shouldered with at the firing line of many battles and labors.

The story was very disjointed and clumsy in its writing.

I have never read any of Zane Grey's books in my over 50 years. However, I purchased his "border" trilogy, detailing and dramatizing his ancestors in the 18th century Ohio Valley. GREAT TALES! Rivals "Drums Along The Mohawk" and Kenneth Robert's "Northwest Passage." Tactically and techincally sound enough to impress this former Marine and Army Special Forces soldier. Read them all!

How did I miss this?

The narrator is perfect for this story. I love this author's work and this does not disappoint. Looking forward to the next story.

Exciting to the end!
