Summary: This story is a blend of fiction and historical fact. Ben keeps a journal of his wagon train trip to the West with Inger and Adam at his side.

Author’s Note: I have taken many liberties with blending fact and fiction with this story. Some of the names are fictional, some are factual. Time periods may be slightly out of order or entirely fictional and I have stretched a few points to make them fit into the story. Places along the route are historically accurate, and I will try to add a note to point these out. I also have “borrowed” some of the story and some of the names from the Bonanza movie, “Journey Remembered.” But this story is not a repeat of that movie – by law, that would be considered plagiarism of a registered movie. A bibliography can be found at the end of the story.
