This collection of letters tells the story of Josiah Mourison and his family as they settle the West. Letters exchanged by Josiah and his family members in New Jersey are transcribed here. The hardships endured mix with the cost of flour and tea, as Josiah repeatedly promises his family back east that he will return. A trip he never makes. Feel the full range of emotions as illness, crop failure, theft, and death keep Josiah from a return visit. Scholars and everyday people alike will enjoy reading about America in the mid-1800s.
