This museum is located in Lackawaxen, Pa. alongside the Delaware River. For information on driving directions and operating hours call 570-685-4871.

Zane Grey was born on January 31, 1872 in Zanesville, Ohio. He recieved a scholarship to the University of Pennsylvania earning a degree in Dentistry in 1896. He had his own Dental practice in New York City. Later he left Dentistry to persue writing full-time. Most people know Zane Grey for his western novels but he also published many other articles and books. This museum was once Zane Grey and his wife's house. It is now owned and operated by the National Park Service. Just down the road is the Roebling Delaware Aqueduct which I will highlight in my next posting. This area is very scenic and it is located in the far Northeastern region of Pennsylvania. In fact if you cross the Delaware river you are in New York State.
