The Oregon Trail, 1850... grueling, unforgiving, dangerous. And it's their road to a new life! Clyde Henderson, a disgruntled carpenter from Philadelphia, desperately wants to start over. After reading an advertisement promising heaven on earth in Oregon Territory, he and his wife Anna, pack up their belongings and head west. They're fortunate to join up with a wagon train in Missouri. Troubles begin when their self-appointed leader absconds at the first faint sign of trouble. Thankfully a formidable rancher, Landon Morland, takes charge and becomes the train's new leader. He asks Clyde to be his right-hand man and, who despite his doubts, agrees. As the wagon train plods across the hostile plains, Clyde's former life fades into obscurity. His eldest son, Matt, becomes a man in a matter of days; fatigue is a constant companion; constant threats of Indian attacks, cattle go missing, disease ravages half the group, and a trio of 49ers take advantage of the emigrants' kindness. Through these trials and more, Anna remains faithful to the God she serves and Clyde learns that in the wild country, there is little else to lean on. But will he and his city-bred family rise above all that comes against them? Will they hold out and survive this unforgiving frontier fraught with unknown dangers? Will they endure the rigorous demands on their road to independence? They have no other choice - their very lives depend on it!

The Civil War has been over for two years. As ever, yet another wagon train in Independence, Missouri is heading out to California with hopes of finding a better life - but this group of travelers is different. Made up of widows and their children, all this wagon train has for help is an old Christian wagon master with a drinking problem and his two old, grizzled freighters. As they face the perils of the Oregon trail - Indian territory, loners, and roughnecks - the greatest danger may come from others who see an opportunity to make a lot of money from a defenseless wagon train. They already made it this far, but now they realize that out there, it's every man for himself. Unless you don't have any.

Abigail Baldwyn might not be a widow after all.... Ever since she received word that her husband, Robert, was killed in the Civil War, Abigail has struggled to keep her Tennessee home and family together. Then a letter arrives claiming that Robert isn't dead, yet he has no plans to return. Desperate for answers, Abigail travels to Independence, Missouri, where she joins a westbound wagon train to find him. Leading a company along the Oregon Trail isn't part of Hoke Mathews's plans. But then the former cavalry scout gets a glimpse of Abigail--so elegant compared to the rest of their hardscrabble wagon community, yet spirited and resilient. Through every peril they encounter--snakebites, Indian raids, fevers, dangerous grudges--his bond with Abigail grows. Abigail knew this journey would test her courage. Now it's testing her marriage vows and her heart, daring her to claim a future on her own terms in a land rich with promise.

This is the story of the emigrants following the Oregon Trail in the year of 1867. One of families is the Silas Martin family and daughter Mary who keeps a diary of events along the trail. Mary had two suitors during the trip-flamboyant John James Fairfield, 19-year-old son of Capt. Fairfield and James Monroe Cromwell, son of Rev. Cromwell. In the spring 1867, construction on the transcontinental railroad had reached Fort Kearney, Nebraska. Some emigrants were now using the railroad for their westward push. In early spring of 1867, Silas Martin joined 20 other emigrant wagons and 2 cargo wagons at Independence Missouri to begin their trek up the trail. Capt. Zeb Fairfield is the wagon master. Capt. Fairfield has a secret contract with the Army to bring 200 Spencer repeating rifles and $200,000 in gold to General Armstrong Custer bivouacked at Fort Hall by September. The first attack on the wagon train was by the Platte River by a remnant of the Quantrill Raiders and the Cole Younger gang. As the wagon train moved westward, it moved into an area known as the High Plains Indian Wars as designated by the Army. The Sioux and Arapahoe Indians joined forces to attack settlers and wagon trains. The first Indian attack was before Fort Laramie by a large number of Indians. Several emigrants were killed and several dozen Indians. A small Indian war party attacked emigrants in a broken down wagon with one emigrant killed and several Indians. At Fort Hall, four the wagons turn north to Fort Henry. The first days the wagons were accompanied by the Calvary due to an uprising by any Blackfoot Indians. On the third night, a Blackfoot Indian slipped into the camp and attempted to kill Mary.
