I had ancestors that came on the Oregon Trail to Oregon so I enjoyed hearing about an area I know so well. It was interesting to hear about the competing claims of Russia, England, and the United States and the fight to secure the claims of each. The author did a good job of letting you know the different personalities within each group, enabling the reader to feel a sense of involvement with the characters and the time. A good read for anyone who enjoys historical fiction. I am looking forward to reading others in the series.
