Book Description

Excerpt from The Oregon Trail, Vol. 2 of 2: Sketches of Prairie and Rocky-Mountain Life As soon as Raymond and I discovered the village from the gap in the hills, we were seen in our turn; keen eyes were constantly on the watch. As we rode down upon the plain, the side of the village nearest us was darkened with a crowd Of naked figures. Several men came forward to meet us. I could distinguish among them the green blanket Of the Frenchman Reynal. When we came up the cere mony of shaking hands had to be gone through in due form, and then all were eager to know what had become of the rest of my party. I satisfied them on this point, and we all moved together towards the village. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
