The stories seem simple--they left, they traveled, they
settled--yet the restless westering impulse of Americans created
one of the most enduring figures in our frontier pantheon: the
hardy pioneer persevering against all odds. Undeterred by storms,
ruthless bandits, towering mountains, and raging epidemics, the
women in these volumes suggest why the pioneer represented the
highest ideals and aspirations of a young nation. In this
concluding volume of the Covered Wagon Women series, we see the
final animal-powered overland migrations that were even then
yielding to railroad travel and, in a few short years, to the
automobile. The diaries and letters resonate with the vigor and
spirit that made possible the settling and community-building of
the American West.
