She is at odds with the Mormon community in which she lives, as they disapprove of her non-Mormon beliefs and her refusal to marry one of their own. When Jane befriends a young man named Lassiter, a notorious gunman with a mysterious past, she finds herself drawn into a dangerous conflict with the local Mormon leader, Elder Tull. As tensions rise and violence threatens to erupt, Jane must rely on Lassiter and her own courage to protect her land and her way of life. Riders of the Purple Sage is a gripping tale of love, betrayal, and redemption set against the rugged beauty of the American West. It is a timeless classic of the Western genre and a must-read for fans of Zane Grey and Western literature.1912. From the master of the western comes the novel that rocketed him to popularity. The story begins: A sharp clip-clop of iron-shod hoofs deadened and died away, and clouds of yellow dust drifted from under the cottonwoods out over the sage. Jane Withersteen gazed down the wide purple slope with dreamy and troubled eyes. A rider had just left her and it was his message that held her thoughtful and almost sad, awaiting the churchmen who were coming to resent and attack her right to befriend a Gentile.
