- Summary:
- Buck's epic account of traveling the length of the Oregon Trail the old-fashioned way--in a covered wagon with a team of mules, an audacious journey that hasn't been attempted in a century--tells the rich history of the trail, the people who made the migration, and its significance to the country. But it is really two stories: the one of his present-time trek on the Oregon Trail and a recounting of a covered wagon trip his father took them on, when they were children, from Central Jersey to Lancaster, PA.
