West Along the Wagon Road, 1852 (American Sisters)

Dashing and brave, tall and free Harriet "Duck" Scott was looking for adventure as the Scott family left Illinois for the faraway Oregon Territory. Then Mother died and Father became lost in a world of his own. It was up to Duck and her five sisters, three brothers, and nine hired hands to keep their wagon train together. But nothing could have prepared the Scott family for the dangers they would meet as they crossed the desert, the plains, and the mountains, and felt the heat, the hunger, and the thirst that wouldn't go away. Now Duck and her sisters have to find water and save their family, no matter what the risks!qwLaurie Lawlor is the author of 'West Along the Wagon Road, 1852 (American Sisters)', published 2000 under ISBN 9780671775575 and ISBN 067177557X.
