Exceptional Reading!

Wow! What a Book! Adventure, Drama, plus Historically factual. How could you go wrong? I learned a lot about Jedidiah Smith and his part in our discovery of California and Oregon plus the Mexican , Indian and the Hawaiians part in all of it. You're interesting. Good read!!!

Real life

I love a good story. This series was that to me. I like to read about the American west and the strong men and women that opened the wast. I also feel sad for the people who had a life in the west they loved and lost.the wast.

Pretty good.

A good series, not great, good. I honestly don't know why it's not great, he's familiar and accurate with the venue and it's an ok story line. But it just didn't grab me the way a great story does.
Oh well, they can't all be great.

Good reading but sometimes I couldn't figure out the different characters. But all in all it is good reading, So read on it is a good good series.

long

This was a drawn out story. I put it aside often, to read something else. But I finally finished it.
