(3) 1-3 My America series. Joshua, whose family traveled the Oregon Trail in Westward to Home, continues recording his experiences in a diary. Throughout the fall and winter of 1848, the McCulloughs claim land, build a house, welcome a new baby, and lose a family member in a tragic accident. Joshua's concisely written narrative captures the hardship and hopefulness of pioneer life. A note and reproductions place events in context.
