Follow along as the Harding family faces disease, treacherous river crossings, and Indians. Can Lura survive the trail? Will her six year old sister get caught sneaking candy? And what will they do when her uncle decides to leave the train? These fictional letters are historically accurate and reflect the living conditions, slang, and attitudes of the 1850s

"Ms. Anthony does an excellent job of making the reader care about her young heroine. The book itself is an easy read for young people. With a proper study guide, it should make a good teaching tool as well."--Verwin Stevens, New York City
What makes it worse is Uncle Jim has a cold, too. He can't stay with Aunt Bet. Papa made him ride in our wagon and Jake is prodding their oxen along. Uncle Jim is not nice when he has a cold. He yelled at me. I know it's just the cold and he'll be sorry later, but I still don't like it.
Momma made me drink vinegar tonight. It was awful! And if you think I'm making a fuss, you should have seen the faces Uncle Jim made! He sputtered terrible and swore until Mama told him he could go to blazes. You would have thought he'd up and die from the taste.
