Book never read. Text and illustrations are clean, clear, and very readable. Free of smoke smells from a cigarette or cigar smoker. This fascinating book covers the memoirs of Jesse A. Applegate and Lavinia Honeyman Porter who travelled the Overland Trail. They, like others, took the 2,000 month trip (about six months) of riding a slow-moving wagon over a rough road or no road at all; up and down hills and mountains; crossing bridgeless rivers and streams, some situations had to be ferried; cooking on an open fire; getting along without refrigeration, bathtubs, clothes washers, and the other appliances we take for granted. It meant surviving torrential rains, an occasional tornado, blistering heat, blinding dust and sand, swarms of insects, stampeding buffalo, a variety of diseases including scurvy and the dreaded cholera, days without water, fresh food, and forage, and the possibility of attacks by hostile Indians.
