DELUXE EDITION-BRAND NEW-UNREAD COPY--READING RIBBON- SHRINK WRAP REMOVED TO VIEW CONTENTS-Burgundy leatherette boards with gold title and pictorial image on front-" A nation of restless wanderers tends to follow along some trails, and it is little surprise that there are recognized historical trails to honor those travelers in American history. This book consists of two hundred pages of text and photos/maps that cover the twelve more established historic trails in the United States. The trails are organized chronologically from the period of time when the trails were used. Beginning with the Juan Bautista De Anza Trail in the American Southwest, we then move to the Overmountain Victory Trail that led backwoods soldiers to King's Mountain and Cowpens to help secure victory in the American Revolution. Most of the trails cover historical movements of people in the 1800's, from the Sante Fe Trail and its focus on trade to the Trail of Tears of the Cherokee from their homelands to Oklahoma to the Oregon, California, and Mormon pioneer trails with their massive population shifts, to the bravery and chutzpah of the short-lived Pony Express Trail to the tragedy of the Nez Perce trail that ends just a few dozen miles from the border of Canada. A couple of later trails, namely the rugged Iditarod Trail in Alaska and the Selma to Montgomery Trail in Alabama, round out 20th century historical trails. Each of the stories includes, as much as possible a good deal of pathos about the difficulties faced by people as well as the way these trails are remembered in contemporary times through historical markers, museums, and reenactment." -Nathan.
