Trail to California the Overland Journal of Vincent Geiger and Wakeman Bryarly

This book is principally the text of the journal begun by Vincent Geiger at St. Joseph, Missouri, and continued by Wakeman Bryarly from the North Platte until his arrival in California. One of the most interesting accounts kept by Gold Rush emigrants, the Geiger-Bryarly journal is articulate and detailed, and filled with enthusiasm and spontaneity.
