Great read I really enjoyed it
Was a great read
I just finished reading this story. It was about a family of girls heading west and what they encountered. It was a pleasant read and look forward to the next book in the series.
LOVE these kind of stories!
A thrilling tale of life and trials during times the wagons traveled the western frontier to the Oregon territory. A beautiful story paying tribute to the strong men and women who both traveled the trails and settled in the wilderness land. Loved the storyline, the characters and the beautiful scenic description Ms Henderson is so beloved for. A book, a series and an author you don’t want to miss!
