Summary: “To the Last Man” by Zane Grey is a historical novel set in the late 19th century that delves into the turbulent days of the American West, focusing specifically on a violent feud known as the Pleasant Valley War. The story follows Jean Isbel, a young man of mixed heritage, who returns to his family’s ranch in Arizona to assist his aging father amidst mounting tensions between cattlemen and sheepmen, which threatens their way of life. The opening of the novel introduces Jean Isbel as he travels through the rugged landscapes of Arizona toward his family's ranch. Disconnected from his family, Jean grapples with nostalgia for the lush forests of Oregon while acknowledging his father’s urgent call for assistance. The narrative describes his solitary camp, his father's troubling letter about impending conflicts with sheepmen, and the adversarial approach of a sheepman named Colter. The tension of the impending conflict sets the stage for Jean's journey, both geographically to Grass Valley and emotionally as he encounters new relationships, including a significant encounter with Ellen Jorth, a sheepman’s daughter whose interactions with Jean are marked by an initial connection that rapidly turns into animosity due to their family loyalties. This opening portion effectively establishes the backdrop of conflict and sets Jean on a path of personal discovery and confrontation with the realities of his heritage and the life awaiting him in Arizona.
