Reprint. Originally published: New Haven : Yale University Press, 1962. (A Yale Western Americana paperbound ; YW-3).
In 1846 Susan Magoffin, eighteen years old and recently married, set out with her husband, a veteran Santa Fe trader, from Independence, Missouri on a trading adventure. This was the time of the American conquest of the Southwest. They first followed Kearny's Army of the West into Santa Fe. Then they followed Doniphan and his Missouri Volunteers into Chihuahua, where they stayed for months. Here we have a colorful and exciting journal of an observant young woman who travelled this region at a crucial period of American history. In June, 1845, a bride of 18 set out with her husband, a Santa Fe trader, on a trek from Missouri to Chihuahua.
