The families depend on Lowry’s experience and expertise to get them through the unimaginably difficult landscape and hostile areas. The families each have their own horses and wagon packed with all that they own heading to start a better life out West. I highly recommend.Īn unforgettable journey following a group of emigrants on the Oregon Trail.ġ853: John Lowry, a half-white half-Pawnee man, leads a group of families across the rough terrain of the Oregon Trail.

They face uncertainly, hardship, tragedy, and find the strength within each other. The strength in this story for me is in the bond, and trust the characters had for each other. There is some romance here to warm up the story and I loved the bond between John & Naomi and it melted this non-romantic heart. The characters are the definition of courage, scared, but still, saddle up anyway. Amy Harmon doesn’t sugarcoated things here however, through her powerful insight and wisdom to family, love and hardship she brings a quieter and hopeful tone to the story. I was on pins and needles all through this one, fearing the danger and hardship of the trail and path taken for these characters.

The story is set on the Oregon Trail in 1853, where we are taken on a vividly written journey with this wagon train set for a better life. The unforgettable characters are the most likable characters I have read in a story. Amy Harmon knows how to kick up a dust storm of emotions. Where the Lost Wander is a fast-paced adventure packed gorgeously written and insightful story with heart.
