"[This book] serves as a useful guide to the American West's most arduous emigrant road carved through a strikingly scenic, convoluted landscape. It also serves as a handy reference for anyone wishing to know the story of the trail."--Steven K. Madsen, coauthor of In Search of the Spanish Trail: Santa Fe to Los Angeles, 1829-1848
