Book excerpt: In 1846, a young man of privilege left his comfortable Boston home to embark on a strenuous overland journey to the untamed West. This timeless account of Parkman's travels and travails provides an expressive portrait of the rough frontiersmen, immigrants, and Native Americans he encounters, set against the splendor of the unspoiled wilderness. While Parkman's patrician air and unabashed racism sometimes jolt the modern reader, this remains a colorful classic by one of the 19th century's most prominent narrative historians. 'The publication of The Oregon Trail in 1849 launched Parkman on his career as a storyteller without peer in American letters . . . It is the picturesqueness, the racy vigor, the poetic eloquence, the youthful excitement, that give The Oregon Trail its enduring appeal, recreating for us, as perhaps does no other book in our literature, the wonder and beauty of life in a new world that is now old and but a memory.

Book excerpt: In April of 1846, Francis Parkman, Jr. set out from St. Louis on a voyage of adventure into the Rocky Mountains. He began his trip on the celebrated Oregon Trail. This is his story. This is a tale of buffalo, horses, wagons, Indians, of hardship and privation, but also, it is a story of great wonder and beauty at the unlimited scope of the Prairies and Mountains of the West. Parkman and his friends had some interesting adventures, and spent some time with the Ogallalla Indians, who he became friendly with. His tale is a saga of the old West, before Western civilization had made many inroads on the land. It is well written, and full of much Indian lore and Frontier lore. Enjoy, if you will, this trip into a time almost forgotten.

Book excerpt: Enjoy this fully and beautifully illustrated edition of this classic travel memoir written by Francis Parkman, the nineteenth century's most famous historian. The Oregon Trail: The Complete Illustrated Edition, by Francis Parkman, is the best known work by the 19th century's most famous historian. It wasn't intended to be a book from the onset, and its pages comprise twenty-one installments that originally ran in The Knickerbocker, a New York City-based literary magazine, in 1849. The book was assembled two years after the first dispatch in the magazine. Brought back into the public eye for the first time in this handsome, fully illustrated edition, The Oregon Trail recreates the untamed West through the eyes of adventure-thirsty Parkman, who was a revered historian, a horticulturalist, and author. Francis Parkman, a well-to-do man from Boston, traveled west in the late 1840s to Nebraska, Wyoming, Colorado, and Kansas. The Oregon Trail covers his two months on the first third of the Oregon Trail and offers beautifully written profiles the American West in the days before the expansion of Eastern settlers into the Western United States. Passages about majestic mountains, wild buffalo herds, and roaring rivers make Parkman's work a classic travel and nature narrative. In May 1846, Parkman arrived in Westport, Missouri, intent on visiting a Native American village along the newly established roads to the West. He had been traveling with his cousin Quincy Adams Shaw, eager to inspect what was left of the continent's native population. Parkman completes his sketches of the Oregon Trail with the quiet, throughtful words, "On the next morning we left town, and after a fortnight of railroads and steamboat we saw once more the familiar features of home."
