Edited by Michael L. Tate

Contributions by Kerin Tate, Will Bagley and Richard Rieck

The firsthand accounts of those who made the trip between 1850 and 1855 that are collected in this third volume in a four-part series speak of wonders and adventures, but also of disaster and deprivation.

Edited by M. John Lubetkin
