The Heritage Of The Desert is well-written by Zane Grey. The story revolves around Carley Burch, an orphaned woman who lives a socialite’s life in New York City. Her fiancé Glenn Kilbourne has gone West to Arizona, near Flagstaff, to recover his health after fighting in world war I. Carley visits him in the lodge run by his neighbors, Mr. and Mrs. Hutter, and their daughter Flo. But then, Glenn realizes that he can never return to his former shallow life and breaks their engagement. On the other hand, Carley decides to return to Arizona and marry Glenn, but when she arrives, she finds Glenn and the Hutter family are away buying hogs. Then, she purchases land near Glenn’s farm and has a house built on it. In the end, she hears a rumor that Glenn has married Flo, and she returns to her home. How will she come to know the truth? Why did Glenn break their engagement? Will their relationship ever get fixed? Will Carley ever get the realization that she did wrong by just believing in a rumor? To know how Carley and Glenn meet again, readers should read this contemporary and romantic tale which is well-written by Zane Grey.
