The Civil War has been over for two years. As ever, yet another wagon train in Independence, Missouri is heading out to California with hopes of finding a better life - but this group of travelers is different. Made up of widows and their children, all this wagon train has for help is an old Christian wagon master with a drinking problem and his two old, grizzled freighters. As they face the perils of the Oregon trail - Indian territory, loners, and roughnecks - the greatest danger may come from others who see an opportunity to make a lot of money from a defenseless wagon train. They already made it this far, but now they realize that out there, it's every man for himself. Unless you don't have any.

Download Covered Wagon Women: 1854-1860 Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle
Some of the women traveling west in the late 1850s were strong advocates of equal rights for their sex. On the trail, Julia Archibald Holmes and Hannah Keziah Clapp sensibly wore the “freedom costume” called bloomers. In 1858 Holmes joined the Pikes Peak gold rush and was the first woman of record to climb the famous mountain. Educator Hannah Clapp traveled to California with a revolver by her side, speaking her mind in a letter included in this volume, which is also enriched by the trail diaries of seven other women. Among them were Sarah Sutton, who died in 1854, just before reaching Oregon’s Willamette Valley; Sarah Maria Mousley, a Mormon woman traveling to Utah in 1857; and Martha Missouri Moore, who drove thousands of sheep from Missouri to California with her husband in 1860.
