Book excerpt: In 1853, four out of twelve siblings of the James and Betsy (Round) Hines family migrated from New York to the Willamette Valley, Oregon Territory, leaving "a massive trail of written material-- books, newspaper articles, personal lettters" and diaries behind. Over a century and a half later, Harold J. Peters used the history-rich resources left behind by his relatives to weave together an account of one pioneer family's overland migration.
