When The Water Hole appeared as a twelve-part serial in Colliers (10/8/27-12/24/27), all the character names had been changed [from Grey's manuscript]. When the serial was posthumously published as Lost Pueblo by Harper & Brothers as the 1954 Zane Grey novel, the text was that of the magazine version, and so the numerous excisions the magazine had made from the text as well as the altered character names were retained. The text published here restores what Zane Grey wrote including all the characters as he originally named them."-- From the introduction (pages 6-7).
