Nearly dying of thirst in the desert and barely surviving an arrow wound from the Indian attack that killed her father, 12-year-old Sallie Fox was a real girl who came by wagon train to California in 1858.
This exciting, lightly fictionalized account begins with the ordinary daily hardships of pioneering, but Sallie’s journey turns into a grim ordeal requiring courage, ingenuity, tough choices, and selfless cooperation. With a map of the route, photographs of Sallie and her fellow pioneers, and other illustrations, this is a well-researched and memorable adventure story.
