Book Description
Mary Rodgers has lost everything--or so she believes. Her entire family has been struck down with influenza, leaving her alone in the world--except for her cousin Philip. But Philip is bound for Oregon to meet up with Laurel, his fiancée, who's waiting for him. Though Mary begs him to take her with him on the Oregon Trail, he resists. What would people think? Mary's plan is simple. They already share a last name. They will pose as husband and wife. The wagonmaster is a firm man--and if he finds out the truth, he'll force them to marry, dashing Philip's dreams of a life with Laurel. But Mary promises it will be their secret, and Philip can't leave her behind after all she's lost. When Luke Sayer, their half-Indian trail scout, begins to spend evenings at their fireside, other travelers notice the obvious mutual attraction between him and Mary. Though Mary denies it, she struggles to keep her promise without bringing harm to either her dear cousin, Philip, who has risked everything for her--or to Luke, the love of her life. Mary's grit and determination will see her through the hardships and sorrows she encounters, but Luke's love will give her hope for the future as they WALK THE PROMISE ROAD... "With exquisite details of wagon trains, women and the West, Anne Schroeder takes us on an authentic journey of love and hope giving us characters to cheer for and moments of meaning to cherish." -- Jane Kirkpatrick, Award-winning author of ALL SHE LEFT BEHIND. "The most accurate novel I've ever read on the Trail." -- Michael Smith, Oregon Trail Preservation Committee

Book Description
Distributed by the University of Nebraska Press for Caxton Press Eastern Oregon is less well known than the West of that state. The two "sides" of Oregon differ dramatically in climate and geography. But it is the people and their stories that set the east apart and which take center stage in this, another of veteran author Ralph Friedman's odes to Oregon.

Book Description
It's summer 1849 and when thirty-year old widow Colette Weylyn decides to leave the heartbreak of her old life behind in Philadelphia and head west to Oregon as a mail order bride, she encourages her twenty-five year old sister-in-law Sera to join her as her companion. But that means these two women who have spent their whole lives in Philadelphia, one of the busiest cities on the east coast, must travel to Independence Missouri then overland by wagon train to Astoria Oregon. This book is a heartwarming story about two young women starting a whole new life far from home. Colette never expected to find love again, not after years of being happily married to Elliot, but Quentin has also known heartbreak and together they slowly rebuild their lives. Sera never believed in romance, nor finding the love of her life, but those months on the trail changed everything when she met a scout from another wagon train. Individual destinies collide on this journey to Oregon, with unexpected events along the way changing lives forever. You get two wagon train stories in this book and two love stories. Meet Wyatt, Quentin and baby Charlie. Meet Buck, Ansel and Burley, all tough men used to a hard life on the frontier. Meet Abe, Charity and Pike, a family heading to the gold fields of California who help two city girls cope with their new life as they travel across country in a wagon train.
