With full-page illustrations and concise text descriptions, this history of the hundreds of thousands who crossed the frontier in the mid-1800s creates a well-rounded look at the daily experiences of pioneers heading west. Paintings, sketches, and photographs are enhanced by details about wagon-train life (for example, one caption about a water crossing explains that sometimes rafts were built, but other times wagon trains drove straight through the river). “Did You Know?” boxes provide further details (finding clean water could cause women to “to stop and clean their group’s dusty clothes. This took all day!”). The volume ends with additional fun facts; a glossary; books and Web sites for more information; and an index.
