Covered Wagon and Other Adventures - Lynn H. Scott

In the spring of 1906 the Scott family traveled six hundred miles by covered wagon in search of relief from asthma and rheumatismfrom St. Paul, Nebraska, to Thermopolis, Wyoming. The entire trip, recounted by a youngster, is full of vividly remembered adventures. There are encounters with Indians, sheepmen, and freighters; crises involving rattlesnakes, black ants, rock avalanches, and Rocky Mountain spotted fever; descriptions of hunting antelope and camping out under the stars. More excitement is in store when the family settles on a small ranch at the edge of the badlands. The Covered Wagonis charmingly illustrated by sketches that Lynn Scott originally drew for his grandchildren.Scott, Lynn H. is the author of 'Covered Wagon and Other Adventures - Lynn H.
