Platte River Road Narratives is a descriptive bibliography of travel over the great Central Route to Oregon, California, Utah, Colorado, Montana, and other western states and territories, 1812-1866. It is dedicated to the ragged, sunburned army of civilians-men, women, and children-whose perilous wagon-train pilgrimage over plains, mountains, and deserts was the dynamic force that created our truly transcontinental Union.
