Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A five-star masterpiece from best-selling author Robert Vaughan. When sixteen-year-old Matt Logan and his friend Danny Duggan run away from an orphanage, they go west. There, they meet Jim Bridger, among other mountain men, and become fur trappers. But the market for beaver plews dies out, and the two friends take on jobs as wagon train guides, where they separate. One of the trains Matt picks up in Independence began its journey in St. Louis, led by widower Cody McNair. Cody was a well experienced leader, having once been the captain of an ocean-going sailing ship. His adult son and daughter, Jared and Ellen and their daughter Emma Joyce, make the trip with him. Also a part of the wagon company is the Baker family, Lon, his wife Norma, and their eight-year-old daughter, Precious. On the journey west, they rescue two travelers from other trains: Nonnie Hughes, a widow who had been going west with her brother and nephew when their wagon train was attacked by a gang of white outlaws, known as the "Hood Raiders", and beautiful, young, Darci Clinton, who had been captured by Indians after her family was slain. Tension develops with some of the members of the train, but Cody keeps everything in check as the train endures the rigors of travel. When the train is hit by the Hood Raiders, the Raiders, including their leader are killed, and the others run off. Five months and ten days after leaving St. Louis, the train reaches its final destination of Oregon City, Oregon.

Book excerpt: A major one-volume history of the Oregon Trail from its earliest beginnings to the present, by a prize-winning historian of the American West. Starting with an overview of Oregon Country in the early 1800s, a vast area then the object of international rivalry among Spain, Britain, Russia, and the United States, David Dary gives us the whole sweeping story of those who came to explore, to exploit, and, finally, to settle there. Using diaries, journals, company and expedition reports, and newspaper accounts, David Dary takes us inside the experience of the continuing waves of people who traveled the Oregon Trail or took its cutoffs to Utah, Nevada, Montana, Idaho, and California. He introduces us to the fur traders who set up the first “forts” as centers to ply their trade; the missionaries bent on converting the Indians to Christianity; the mountain men and voyageurs who settled down at last in the fertile Willamette Valley; the farmers and their families propelled west by economic bad times in the East; and, of course, the gold-seekers, Pony Express riders, journalists, artists, and entrepreneurs who all added their unique presence to the land they traversed. We meet well-known figures–John Jacob Astor, Marcus and Narcissa Whitman, John Frémont, the Donners, and Red Cloud, among others–as well as dozens of little-known men, women, and children who jotted down what they were seeing and feeling in journals, letters, or perhaps even on a rock or a gravestone. Throughout, Dary keeps us informed of developments in the East and their influence on events in the West, among them the building of the transcontinental railroad and the efforts of the far western settlements to become U.S. territories and eventually states. Above all, The Oregon Trail offers a panoramic look at the romance, colorful stories, hardships, and joys of the pioneers who made up this tremendous and historic migration.

Repulsed by what he has heard on the trail, Brady rushes to the homestead to warn his loved ones. As they stand together to defend their family honor, will Brady and Landon be able to come to terms with each other? Will the settlers be able to protect themselves from this menace as they begin their new lives in the Willamette Valley? After months of hardship, blood, sweat and tears on the Oregon Trail, they will not be intimidated.

Book excerpt: Enjoy this fully and beautifully illustrated edition of this classic travel memoir written by Francis Parkman, the nineteenth century's most famous historian. The Oregon Trail: An Illustrated Edition of Francis Parkman's Western Adventure is Francis Parkman's best-known work. It wasn't intended to be a book from the onset, and its pages comprise twenty-one installments that originally ran in The Knickerbocker, a New York City–based literary magazine, in 1849. The book was assembled two years after the first dispatch in the magazine. Brought back into the public eye for the first time in this handsome, fully illustrated edition, The Oregon Trail recreates the untamed West through the eyes of adventure-thirsty Parkman, who was a revered historian, a horticulturalist, and author. Francis Parkman, a well-to-do man from Boston, traveled west in the late 1840s to Nebraska, Wyoming, Colorado, and Kansas. The Oregon Trail covers his two months on the first third of the Oregon Trail and offers beautifully written profiles of the American West in the days before the expansion of Eastern settlers into the Western United States. Passages about majestic mountains, wild buffalo herds, and roaring rivers make Parkman's work a classic travel and nature narrative. In May 1846, Parkman arrived in Westport, Missouri, intent on visiting a Native American village along the newly established roads to the West. He had been traveling with his cousin Quincy Adams Shaw, eager to inspect what was left of the continent's native population. Parkman completes his sketches of the Oregon Trail with the quiet, thoughtful words, "On the next morning we left town, and after a fortnight of railroads and steamboat we saw once more the familiar features of home."

Book excerpt: The Oregon Trail, 1850... grueling, unforgiving, dangerous. And it's their road to a new life! Clyde Henderson, a disgruntled carpenter from Philadelphia, desperately wants to start over. After reading an advertisement promising heaven on earth in Oregon Territory, he and his wife Anna, pack up their belongings and head west. They're fortunate to join up with a wagon train in Missouri. Troubles begin when their self-appointed leader absconds at the first faint sign of trouble. Thankfully a formidable rancher, Landon Morland, takes charge and becomes the train's new leader. He asks Clyde to be his right-hand man and, who despite his doubts, agrees. As the wagon train plods across the hostile plains, Clyde's former life fades into obscurity. His eldest son, Matt, becomes a man in a matter of days; fatigue is a constant companion; constant threats of Indian attacks, cattle go missing, disease ravages half the group, and a trio of 49ers take advantage of the emigrants' kindness. Through these trials and more, Anna remains faithful to the God she serves and Clyde learns that in the wild country, there is little else to lean on. But will he and his city-bred family rise above all that comes against them? Will they hold out and survive this unforgiving frontier fraught with unknown dangers? Will they endure the rigorous demands on their road to independence? They have no other choice - their very lives depend on it!
