Zane Grey
Zane Grey, America’s master storyteller of the old West, was a passionate angler. He fished as many as three hundred days of the year. This collection, first published in 1925, describes his fishing adventures in exotic locales throughout the Pacific region.
These stories capture the drama and excitement that Grey experienced in being the first person to fish many waters―from the Galapagos Islands to Cabo San Lucas―and in being the first to catch and document many new species of fish. No lover of Zane Grey storytelling will want to miss these real-life adventures.
The Los Angeles Times listed Tales of Fishing Virgin Seas as one of the best nonfiction books of 2000.

“Anyone who loves tales of adventure into far seas, unusual experiences, accounts of exotic and almost intoxicating beauty…will find it a fascinating volume.”
(New York Times)“A fine example of simple writing that allows a reader to turn the next corner with the author, catching the unexpected at eye level—among the finest and most difficult literary achievements.”
(Los Angeles Times)"[Tales of Fishing Virgin Seas is], even today, among the finest works on big-game fishing.”
