| Summary | "The Man of the Forest" by Zane Grey is a novel written during the early 20th century, specifically in the 1910s. The book is set against the backdrop of the rugged American wilderness, exploring themes of adventure, danger, and the clash between civilization and the wild. The main character, Milt Dale, is portrayed as a solitary figure deeply connected to the forest, who stumbles upon a plot that threatens an innocent young woman named Helen Rayner, the niece of rancher Al Auchincloss. At the start of the novel, the serene yet haunting ambiance of the forest is vividly depicted, with Milt Dale, an experienced woodsman, blending into the natural surroundings. He overhears a conversation among a group of outlaws, led by the menacing figure Snake Anson, plotting to kidnap Helen Rayner upon her arrival in the West to claim her inheritance. Dale's sense of justice and protective instincts are ignited, prompting him to devise a plan to thwart the kidnappers. The opening sets the stage for a gripping tale of suspense, as Dale prepares to confront dangers in order to save Helen, while the reader is introduced to a world where both beauty and treachery lie lurking just beyond the trees.
