Rev. ed. of: To California by covered wagon. c1954.
In the spring of 1844, eleven covered wagons headed west from Council Bluffs, Iowa. Some 50 men, women and children made up the caravan, and a young man named Mose Schallenberger kept a journal of the trip. From Mose's notes, George Stewart has drawn firsthand information about the events of the journey, from dangerous encounters with Indians and buffalo to the group's near-starvation. Here is the story of these brave pioneers who miraculously succeeded in bringing the first covered wagons to California.
