"I really enjoyed this novel. It was the first book I read after moving to New Hampshire. I was working the night shift and when work was slow I would pick this story up and nurse my imagination with it into the wee hours of the morning."
"I love books about the West, especially when the setting is the largely unsettled West. Guthrie did an amazing job in his descriptions of the land along the Oregon Trail. It's amazing what the settlers went through in order to get to Oregon."
