About this audiobook
Two thousand miles of brutal prairie, treacherous rivers, and towering mountains stand between desperate pioneers and their Oregon dream. Divided by bitter rivalries and united by necessity, the wagon train pushes forward against insurmountable odds. Hunger, disease, and conflict stalk their every step across the Great Plains. This sweeping epic captures the triumph and tragedy of the relentless westward expansion.
