Description

Roads to Empire. America's western imgration began with many threads that later merged into the great movement from Independence, Missouri and the other river towns. This is a record of not only history at its greatest moment, but of personal stories of human endeavor. It tells anecdotes of danger, privations, defeats and triumphs of men who matched their courage and their folly against an unknown land of trackless deserts, and impassable mountains with implacable hostiles everywhere. 270/Hardbound/Illustrations/Map/Photographs
