Betty Zane, more of an "eastern" than a western, set in 1772 in what is now Wheeling, WV, and involving some of Grey's ancestors, along with some other historical figures of the time. I have been reading a lot of western fiction the past couple of years. I was able to buy a lot of Grey's works for 99 cents on Kindle. I started with Riders of the Purple Sage and then its sequel, The Desert Crucible. I have also taken an interest in the pioneer history west of the Appalachians, and I wanted to see what he did with historical fiction in that area. Betty Zane is very good. Next up, its sequel, The Spirit of the Border

My sister, God rest her soul, loved Zane Grey.
