Book Description
It was indeed a change for Ken Ward, young forester, pitcher of the varsity nine at school, andhunter of lions in the Arizona cañons. Here he was entering the jungle of the tropics. The rifles andthe camp outfit on the seat beside his brother Hal and himself spoke of coming adventures. Beforethem lay an unknown wilderness--the semi-tropical jungle. And the future was to show that themystery of the jungle was stranger even than their imaginings.It was not love of adventure alone or interest in the strange new forest growths that had drawnKen to the jungle. His uncle, the one who had gotten Ken letters from the Forestry Department atWashington, had been proud of Ken's Arizona achievements. This uncle was a member of theAmerican Geographical Society and a fellow of the New York Museum of Natural History. Hewanted Ken to try his hand at field work in the jungle of Mexico, and if that was successful, then toexplore the ruined cities of wild Yucatan. If Ken made good as an explorer his reward was to be atrip to Equatorial Africa after big game. And of course that trip meant opportunity to see Englandand France, and, what meant more to Ken, a chance to see the great forests of Germany, whereforestry had been carried on for three hundred years.

Book Description
Ken Ward in the Jungle is an adventure novel by Zane Grey. was an American author known for his popular adventure novels and stories. Excerpt: "Finally the boys met a mozo named Pepe, who had often rowed a boat for George. Pepe looked sadly in need of a job; still he did not ask for it. George said that Pepe had been one of the best boatmen on the river until canya, the fiery white liquor to which the natives were addicted, had ruined his reputation. Pepe wore an old sombrero, a cotton, shirt and sash, and ragged trousers. He was barefooted. Ken noted the set of his muscular neck, his brawny shoulders and arms, and appreciated the years of rowing that had developed them. But Pepe's haggard face, deadened eyes, and listless manner gave Ken pause. Still, Ken reflected, there was never any telling what a man might do, if approached right. Pepe's dejection excited Ken's sympathy. So Ken clapped him on the shoulder, and, with George acting as interpreter, offered Pepe work for several weeks at three pesos a day. That was more than treble the mozo's wage. Pepe nearly fell off the canal bridge, where he was sitting, and a light as warm and bright as sunshine flashed into his face."
