"Loved it. Found an old edition in Half Price Books and enjoyed the insights offered by Laura's daughter. I wish there was more to it, but being based on diaries, it can't be helped."
"Movin' further along. This is a slim tome, indeed -- 100 pages, with at least 5-10 of those being pictures. It contains an intro and afterword by Laura's daughter, Rose, who attempts to contextualize the events of the journey from de Smet, SD to Mansfield, MS. The middle part is just Laura's diary from the trip. A lot of reports about how high the wheat is growing in places where they're traveling, the temperature in the wagon, and the suitability of different places to live. Neat to see the Wilders visiting big cities and their reports on them, but as we say in the world of music, this one is "for completists only.""
