Reviews
On Apr 10 2020, a reader said:
First published as "The Water Hole" in Collier's magazine in 1927, this is the love story between a 20 year old spoiled rich girl who was never deprived of anything in her life, and a young archaeologist who is hoping to make the discovery of a "lost" pueblo. The distinct differences of personalities--she free and easy and wild, and he, quiet, reserved, "old fashioned"--is cause for quite interesting circumstances to erupt between them. It makes for a different kind of book, with lots of twists and turns as Janey Endicot and Phillip Randolph struggle with their relationship. At one point Phillip "spanks" Janey; something that could only happen in a Zane Grey story. There are villains and pseudo-villains, a kidnapping, and a near lynching--enough action and pace to go along with all the romantic difficulties. It's a good read.
