Heading for Oregon: Living in a Sod House Beside the Oregon Trail

The stories in this book brings alive the experiences that I, Clara Kirkpatrick Lau, and my sibling brothers and sisters, mother and father had living during those difficult pioneer days from 1885 to 1890 when we left our farm in Lenora, Kansas. We headed northwest by covered wagon to join up with the Oregon Trail wagon train. Our journey was soon interrupted by unexpected circumstances to live on the plains of Nebraska before finally continuing onto Oregon by train in 1890.
