Description
A tale of the Oregon Trail fills this book, named for its maid, Esther. It was printed at London by George Routledge and Sons. The list of parts maps the road west. Westward stands at its head. Names fill the road: Waltermeyer, a fine man of the wilds; an apostle; Claude and Ellen; and a man held by the Dacotahs. Thirst, the ride of a Mormon, and a fire on the plain mark the mid parts.
More turns of the road crowd the last half: a true heart, a sharp break, a lone ride, and a night storm in the hills. A camp of the Dacotahs, a revolt, a trial on the heights, and a duel in the wilds lead to a start of dread. The home road and the home end the tale.
