The Great Platte River Road: The Covered Wagon Mainline via Fort Kearny to Fort Laramie
Merrill J. Mattes
The Great Platte River Road through Nebraska and Wyoming was the grand corridor of America's westward expansion. This work goes far beyond geography and Indian encounters in revealing cultural aspects of the great migration: food, dress, equipment, organization, camping, sex ratios, morals, religion, crime, disease, death, and burial customs.
