These diaries of Mary Walker and Myra Eells bring to life the early day pioneer struggles to maintain survival and sanity during the years from 1838-1848. Being recently married wives of missionaries, both Walker and Eells maintained excellent daily diaries of their arduous overland journey from Missouri to Washington. These overland diaries are an entrancing read, depicting day-to-day life along the Oregon Trail while riding side-saddle for 1900 miles.
