Zane Grey

Prolific western author Zane Grey (1872 - 1939) began his writing career relating stories of his experiences fishing along the Upper Delaware River. He lived in Lackawaxen, Pennsylvania, from 1905 until 1918. Lackawaxen always held a special place in his memories, and was chosen as the site of his final resting place. Today, Grey's home from 1914-1918 is preserved by the National Park Service as part of Upper Delaware Scenic and Recreational River.
