[zanegrey] ZG and His Contemporaries
Speaking of fav books by ZG, I'd like to start a discussion of the group on other fav authors who were contemporaries of ZG. I'm a collector of books by certain writers of the same era as ZG. They hold the same moral values, their descriptions of landscapes, their soaring imaginations when exploring space, or underwater, or jungle kingdoms are uncomparable. These are classics. Edgar Rice Burroughs Jules Verne Edgar Allen Poe CS Lewis HG Wells Mary Shelley and so many more that I am forgetting. Just think of the unknown worlds that they've explored. Even before space travel! Exploring other dimensions. Other science. Without these writers sparking our imaginations, would we have landed on the moon as quickly? Would science have gone so far in cloning experiments? Imagination is a gift. It's also something that is slowly being lost in this age of GameBoys, etc. When was the last time you saw kids out in the yard playing cowboys and Indians?
