Book Beginnings on Friday is a meme hosted by Gilion at Rose City Reader. Anyone can participate; just share the opening sentence of your current read, making sure that you include the title and author so others know what you're reading.The Oregon Trail: A New American Journey by Rinker Buck
"I had known long before I rode a covered wagon to Oregon that naivete was the mother of adventure."I would very much agree with this statement. There are a lot of things we wouldn't have done, had we truly known what we were getting into at the start. But c'mon, who doesn't know that driving a covered wagon from Missouri to Oregon would be rather difficult?

Love that sentence.
Can you imagine traveling in a covered wagon? It had to be awful.
I just finished book where a wagon train left for the West. Lots of hardships.
Thanks for sharing...ENJOY your weekend.

It sounds like such a fun book. I will look for it. You had be at the mention of Bill Bryson.
I've had my eyes on this one at the library! :)
