The Oregon Trail: A New American Journey

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER â€¢ #1 Indie Next Pick â€¢ Winner of the PEN New England Award

â€œEnchantingâ€¦A book filled with so much loveâ€¦Long before Oregon, Rinker Buck has convinced us that the best way to see America is from the seat of a covered wagon.â€ â€”The Wall Street Journal

â€œAmazingâ€¦A real nonfiction thriller.â€ â€”Ian Frazier, The New York Review of Books

â€œAbsorbingâ€¦Winningâ€¦The many layers in The Oregon Trail are linked by Mr. Buckâ€™s voice, which is alert and unpretentious in a manner that put me in mind of Bill Brysonâ€™s comic tone in A Walk in the Woods.â€ â€”Dwight Garner, The New York Times

A major bestseller that has been hailed as a â€œquintessential American storyâ€ (Christian Science Monitor), Rinker Buckâ€™s The Oregon Trail is an epic account of traveling the 2,000-mile length of the Oregon Trail the old-fashioned wayâ€”in a covered wagon with a team of mulesâ€”that has captivated readers, critics, and booksellers from coast to coast. Simultaneously a majestic journey across the West, a significant work of history, and a moving personal saga, Buckâ€™s chronicle is a â€œlaugh-out-loud masterpieceâ€ (Willamette Week) that â€œso ensnares the emotions it becomes a tear-jerker at its closeâ€ (Star Tribune, Minneapolis) and â€œwill leave you daydreaming and hungry to see this landâ€ (The Boston Globe).
