"I stopped in my tracks. The mountain lion, appearing huge now, took slow catlike steps toward me. His wonderful eyes, clear blue fire circled by yellow flame, fascinated me. Hugging the wall with my body I brought the revolver up, short armed, and with clinched teeth, and nerve strained to the breaking point, I aimed between the eyes and pulled the trigger."This passage from Zane Grey's story about Roping Lions in the Grand Canyon is one of many in this real life adventure involving Buffalo Jones, Uncle Jimmy Owens, Jim Emett and Grey in 1908.
