Hard Cover. 8vo 0394538412 Dust jacket creased to edges, small closed tears, small mark, not price clipped. xxii+280pp. The movement of millions of ordinary people westward across the American continent was one of the great folk migrations of all time, stretching over two centuries and thousands of hard-traveled miles.
