Summary
Imagine leaving your home and moving across the country to a new life on the unknown frontier. That's exactly what thousands of people did in the mid-1800s when they traveled along the Oregon Trail, chasing their dreams of a better life out West. Lively language, historical illustrations, and primary source journal entries from settlers help readers feel as if they were a part of the journey. Meets Common Core critical thinking standards, and provides strong ties to social studies standards on westward expansion
