| Synopsis: |
Providing glimpses into the lives of ordinary people in 19th-century America and into the history of the nation's settlement, this work tells the story of the author's six-week journey by skiff along the Ohio river. He covered 1000 miles from Redstone, Pennsylvania, to Cairo, Ilinois, where the Ohio river meets the Mississippi. Thwaite's voyage echoes those taken by early explorers, pioneers, and settlers who opened up the West through river travel from the East. This edition is a reprinting of the original 1897 edition. |
