The Great Platte River Road through Nebraska and Wyoming was the grand corridor of America's westward expansion. This work goes far beyond geography and Indian encounters in revealing cultural aspects of the great migration: food, dress, equipment, organization, camping, sex ratios, morals, religion, crime, disease, death, and burial customs.
