About This Book
A new approach to an account of the great pioneer trek across the plains is embodied in this tale of an Iowa Methodist family, caught up in the enthusiasm generated by the Rev. Delazon Smith, causing them to join the westward surge to the Promised Land of Oregon.
Author Beatrice Lockhart Bliss, a great granddaughter of the central characters, Mary Vowell Adams and her husband, Charles, has created a different story which may well come closer to telling it as it really was than some of the more glamorous accounts of the great American migration to the west in the middle of the last century.
