Customer Review:
My great-great grandparents with an infant daughter journeyed overland from Missouri to California in 1850 and I read this book to learn something of their experience.

Customer Review:
I thought the book was an excellent review of some very powerful women who, in most cases had scant means, but who have risked much to keep our planet whole and protect it from being exploited for short term gains. I would recommend it strongly to anyone interested in preserving the environment... more info

Customer Review:
I bought this to use in my 6th grade reading classroom. It is excellent to use to teach reading skills such as main idea, author's purpose, or summarizing.

from Rainy Day Pr
Price: $17.95

Customer Review:

I'll admit part of the interest for me is that living in Oregon, the names of people and places are so familiar.
