Summary

Zane Grey: Western union

Grey masterfully combines the historical saga of the birth of modern America with classic western motifs of revenge, friendship and romance on the ruthless frontier. Exciting, visually rich and full of authentic details about the construction of the telegraph.

In 1861, young engineer Edward Creighton (modeled on a real person) leads an ambitious project: the construction of the first transcontinental telegraph line from Omaha to Salt Lake City. In the wilds of Nebraska, Wyoming and Utah, his expedition faces bison, hostile Cheyenne and Sioux tribes, and the most dangerous of all – an organized gang of robbers and saboteurs led by former Confederate officers who want to prevent the Union from gaining fast communication. Shaw falls in love with Creighton's sister Sue, but his old friend Jack Slade (now the leader of the gang) blackmails him into working for his enemies. As thousands of miles of wire are strung across the prairies and Rockies, epic conflicts ensue: Indian attacks, buffalo stampedes, prairie fires, and a final showdown in which Vance must choose between love, loyalty, and redemption.
