Follows a schoolteacher as she undertakes the dangerous journey across the plains to Oregon, along with the spiritual journey of her Christian faith. This description may be from another edition of this product.
I enjoyed this book. Holly came to Oregon to get away from a terrible situation back home. She stays with her cousin, Hetty, who is very cruel to her. She applies for a teaching position but you'll have to read the book to see if she gets it. Then a terrible disease of small pox takes over the town. Many people die. It is a sad book. The ending is the best part.
Enjoyable

I found this book very enjoyable. Once I started reading it I couldn't put it down. I love to read about romance in the old west.
Pretty Good!

This was a very good book. Although somewhat lacking in spirituality, the storyline is very good! :)
