Customer Review: Its a wonderful book to add to a library of other Oregon Trail books. Recommended as such, because its a wonderful reference point, but its doesn't read like a story so much as more reference material.
Customer Review: What's your meat and bread? This is a comedy dressed up in historical clothes, and although the intent was good this tale never seems to make up it's mind whether it's going to be primarily fish or fowl...and the result is, well, rather limp and "foul"!...

I found McGinnis' writing to be slow, evolving, but still an excellent book overall. Bledsoe establishes a better understanding the Upchurch family and the Von... more info
Customer Review: I usually enjoy true crime, but this one wasn't very good. Also, I thought it was totally uncalled for to waste tax payers money on a trial for Ray Copeland, when he wanted to plead guilty. Come on!
