I love a wagon train story. Cornelia and Raymond came over on a ship from Prussia, planning on going to gold country with a wagon train. They planned on making enough money to send for their parents. They met Jake and formed a partnership. At least Raymond did. He tended to tell Cornelia what to do, which was making her more angry all the time. The trip would take a long time, and there would be people to meet and hopefully for her to form friendships with. Nora is the same age as Cornelia, and is also unmarried. But her father treated her much differently, complaining she was baggage to be rid of. An interesting story of young people from different backgrounds, yet the same, learning how to live and be themselves, while on a journey that is always dangerous and not everyone survives. Strong women, standing up for themselves. Good Christian lessons. Looking forward to the next book!
