Recenzii
"This book conveys the hardship and romance of travel west over the trail when it was a months-long journey through unsettled and often dangerous territory. Using the diaries of people who traveled the trail and historic photos, author Hill captures the adventure and spirit of a trip over the Santa Fe trail."—S Gaugian
