This was a fun read. Ms. Jones takes you for sorrow to joy and touches on every emotion in between. I laughed and cried. I have always been interested in the wagon trains heading west and this book takes you all the way form Independance to the Sierras. I would have liked to learn more about Seneca's brothers though.
