Summary "The Rainbow Trail" by Zane Grey is a romance novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows John Shefford, a former clergyman who embarks on a journey through the wild untamed landscape of the American Southwest in search of adventure and to reclaim his sense of purpose. As he travels, Shefford encounters deep-seated spiritual and emotional struggles while confronting the harsh realities of life in the wilderness and the complexities of relationships with the Native American characters he meets along the way. The opening of the novel introduces Shefford as he arrives at Red Lake, a desolate and haunting place that sets the stage for his journey into the unknown. As he halts his horse to take in the vastness of the landscape, he reflects on his past failures and the haunting call of adventure that drives him forward. The narrative takes a turn when he witnesses a violent altercation involving an Indian girl and a man, prompting him to intervene and establish his presence in this wild land. Describing his encounters with traders and the stark beauty of the desert, the opening portion emphasizes Shefford's internal conflict and longing for connection, setting the tone for a journey filled with discovery and self-revelation as he grapples with his identity and desires amidst the haunting backdrop of the American frontier.
