(Randolph Barnes) Marcy, Randolph Barnes The Prairie Traveler: A Hand-book for Overland Expeditions Produced by Chris Curnow, Joseph Cooper and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team at http://www.pgdp.net "The Prairie Traveler: A Hand-book for Overland Expeditions" by Randolph B. Marcy is a practical guide for those planning overland journeys across the American frontier, written in the mid-19th century. The book offers detailed advice on the various routes to California and Oregon, the organization of traveling companies, and guidance on supplies and equipment necessary for such expeditions. It serves as a comprehensive manual for emigrants and pioneers preparing for long treks in the untamed wilderness. The opening portion of the text provides insight into the critical decisions faced by travelers embarking on the journey to the West. It discusses the selection of routes based on individual circumstances, such as location and time of year, emphasizing the importance of proper organization and leadership within traveling companies. Marcy stresses the need for careful preparation of supplies, including food and appropriate gear, while also touching on the merits of different types of transportation, such as wagons with mules or oxen. His perspective combines personal experience with practical knowledge, highlighting how the success of these dangerous and challenging journeys relied on understanding both the terrain and the necessities of wilderness survival.
