Abstract Shortly after the birth of the United States, many people headed west to settle the new territory of the frontier. They journeyed by wagon for months on end and faced bad weather, sickness, and fears of hostile Native Americans. Historians know a lot about these wagon train journeys because of the many diaries kept by travelers! Readers meet a young wagon train traveler and, through this first-person account, learn about life on the Oregon Trail.
