 s book selection is 'The Plains Across: The Overland Emigrants and the Tra
 ns-Mississippi West: 1840-60' by John Unruh Jr. A finalist for the Pulitze
 r Prize in history and the winner of seven awards for historical writing\,
  'The Plains Across' is a thoroughly researched study of the Oregon/Califo
 rnia Trail. Relying on contemporaneous newspaper reports\, letters\, perso
 nal journals and diaries\, Unruh explores the reasons emigrants undertook 
 the arduous journey and the hardships\, perils and sacrifices they endured
  to establish a new life in the West. In reviewing the book The Washington
  Post Book Review wrote: 'Magisterial....Unruh has not only produced the b
 est book yet written on the overland journey\, but has also laid to rest a
  magnitude of popular myths...The book is so rich in anecdotes\, so sparkl
 ingly written... it might have come from the pen of a best-selling popular
 izer.' The book club is free and open to the public\, and new members are 
 always welcome.\n\nStart time: 7:30 PM
