Description

The Wagon Trains of '44 is a comparative view of the individual caravans in the emigration of 1844 to Oregon. During this year over 1000 emigrants took to the westward trail--more than the previous year. This book is based on the original accounts and reminiscences of others and is one of the most thorough treatments of a single year migration ever published. 273/Maps/Photographs
