Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from From the West to the West: Across the Plains to Oregon The events of pioneer life, which form the groundwork of this story, are woven into a composite whole by memory and imagination. But they are not personal, nor do they present the reader, except in a fragmentary and romantic sense, with the actual, individual lives of borderers I have known. The story, nevertheless, is true to life and border history; and, no matter what may be the fate of the book, the facts it delineates will never die.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Overland Migrations: Settlers to Oregon, California, and Utah The busy outfitters of the neighboring towns of Independence and Westport, Missouri - merchants, innkeepers, blacksmiths, saddlers, and the rest - had never before seen such a crowd of movers as the one that poured through their muddy streets in the spring of 1843. Not that the frontier businessmen weren't used to travelers. Each spring for the past 20 years specially built freight wagons had been traveling from Missouri along the famed Santa Fe Trail to New Mexico and, some of them, on south as far as Chihuahua. But the sinewy roustabouts and the Mexican and American proprietors of those caravans were entirely male - adventurers, not set tlers seeking new homes. By fall most would be back with the bars of gold and silver bullion, the jingling silver pesos, the sacks of coarse wool, and the herds of fine Spanish mules that were the fruit of their bartering. This influx was different. Numbering close to a thousand persons, it was composed for the most part of families. Members ranged in age from an occasional grandfather and grandmother down to a scattering of babes - even unborn babes to judge from the appearance of a few of the women. They planned to journey to the Pacific Coast - more than twice as far as Santa Fe - ih ordinary farm wagons covered with flimsy roofs of canvas. What was more, none of those setting forth that year intended, at least at the outset, to come back again. When news of this gathering reached New York, Horace Greeley, editor of the influential Tribune, picked up his pen in amazement. Years later, Gree ley would advise the youth of the nation, Go west, young man, and grow up with the country. In 1843, however, he wasn't ready for so radical an idea. Instead he wrote scornfully, This migration of more than a thousand persons in one body to Oregon wears an aspect of insanity.

Book Synopsis Oregon for the Settler (Classic Reprint) by : Pacific Mail Steamship Company
Download or read book Oregon for the Settler (Classic Reprint) written by Pacific Mail Steamship Company and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-05 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Oregon for the Settler Oregon is a wonderland of natural resources, scenic beauty, and congenial climate. It is frequently referred to as a land of promise; but it is more than that - it is a land of fulfillment. Nature has done much here in Oregon for the welfare of mankind. The residents of the state, aware of the advantages of living under congenial conditions and eager to see others enjoy these bounties, have already done much, and are now definitely organized to do still more, in making conditions for the settler not only agreeable for the present but secure for the future. But the settler must look squarely at conditions; he must measure his own resources against these conditions. and be willing to do his part to work out success. Oregon welcomes producers. She needs workers to take up her farm lands and develop her natural resources. She welcomes the home maker. Here as elsewhere, intelligence, initiative, and industry are necessary to make good in a big way. But for the man who is willing to work on the land, and shape it into a farm home, Oregon offers unparalleled opportunities. Oregon, and especially Western Oregon, is a land of beautiful homes. Her mild and equable climate, her magnificent scenery, and her luxuriant verdure, attract the settler who, though he may be past the age or the need to conduct a farm or a business merely for profit, delights in an environment that promotes his health, stimulates his energy, and prolongs not only his life but his joy in living. The purpose of this booklet is to sketch, in plain and straight forward terms, the resources and opportunities of Western Oregon, and to supply to those who are planning to come to the Pacific Coast accurate information about the country, its people, and its institutions. Less than one-third of the land of Western Oregon is now in cultivation. Oregon needs more dairymen, more scientific fruit and berry growers, more poultry producers, more truck farmers, and more general farmers. She needs more people to enjoy the rich and varied products of these farms. So there is abundant room for you in Oregon. If you want to become a producer in this state of vast virgin resources, "the one uncut melon of the western world," if you want to learn what opportunities await you here, write to any representative listed on page 64.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of Oregon and Its People To the student of human affairs the history of the settlement of Oregon will ever be a tale of absorbing interest. Coming as the last of those westward movements by which the American commonwealths were peopled, Oregon more closely typifies the home-seeking and the home-making spirit of the Saxon race than any of her sister states. The early pioneers of Oregon were not driven to make the hazardous journey by the lash of religious persecution, nor were they impelled to brave the hardships of the plains and mountains by the desire for gold. Sustained only by the ambition to found a home for themselves and their children in the distant West, or led by the unselfish zeal of the missionary, they went about their task soberly and seriously, and with a resolute purpose that never faltered in the presence of danger. Certainly the children of no land under the sun have a nobler heritage of brave and honest ancestry than those of Oregon, and if The Story Of Oregon And Its People shall bring this fact and its message closer to the hearts of the young it will have served the purpose for which it was written.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Bucking the Sagebrush: Or the Oregon Trail in the SeventiesAs to the truth of my statements about the Mormons, I will simply say that now it is a matter of history.Possibly, I may have thrown a side-light on the cow-puncher, as I know him. To me he sizes up as other humans, good, bad, and indifferent. He has one characteristic, how ever, which is most prominent - the fear of ridicule. To have his neck broken by a horse is awkward, to get shot is unfortunate but to appear ridiculous - that breaks his heart. Hav ing a fellow-feeling in this respect and know ing that prefaces are apt to be wearisome, I will rope and tie this one.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Early Oregon: Jottings of Personal Recollections of a Pioneer of 1850 During the month of October, 1850, there were fitted out in San Francisco three brigs, suitable for carrying passengers, which were advertised for sailing during that month to the mouth of the Umpqua river. No American vessel had ever entered that port before. The mines had been discovered in northern California, and a company had been organized in San Francisco to locate townsites on the Umpqua river. The townsite at the mouth of the river was called Umpqua City. Up the river at the head of navigation was Scottsburg; farther up, near the site of the post of the Hudson Bay Company, was Elkton, and still farther up, on the trail from Oregon to California, was Winchester. This route was intended to reach the northern California mines. Flaming hand-bills were posted showing the advantages of the route and advertising the cities as before named. Plats of these new cities were made out, and lots were offered for sale at public auction at real estate offices in San Francisco.
