Description

Historic Sites Along the Oregon Trail is an excellent addition to other books written about this famous trail. It is the major route of the Oregon emigrants from 1841 to 1848, from Independence, Missouri to Oregon City. The author was selected by the National Park Service to make its initial Oregon Trail survey in 1972. Most of the trail has been obliterated by agriculture, highways, dams and whatnot, but the plains, deserts, and mountains are still largely intact. 439/Softbound/Maps/Photographs
