A wonderful book of descriptive, historical and instructive stories for young and old. These pages hold stories that are drawn from the author's personal experiences during a trip across Nebraska, and westward over the mountains to the Pacific coast in the year 1852. A classic collection of frontier stories, accounts of life on the Oregan trail and hunting trips in Wyoming with beautiful descriptions of the flora and fauna. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
