1.0 out of 5 stars This was a disappointment, even at under $12, September 30, 1999
By A Customer
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Oregon Trail (Hardcover)
The book has less than 22 pages of text. It would be a short chapter of a Junior High American History book. The balance of the 64 pages are mostly historical photographs (too many not directly related to the trail).

The representation of fact is suspect also. An example is it's statement that the Lewis and Clark expedition was organized AFTER the Louisiana Purchase. Jefferson had commissioned the expedition to explore foreign (Spanish) territory. There are other similar representations.

While not an expensive book by any standard, the value is just not there except as a very early primer.
