She was twenty-four, she wanted Montana, and her mother came along. Sarah Raymond Herndon drove a wagon across the plains in 1865 and kept the diary as she went: the river crossings, the guards posted at night, the quarrels inside the train, the graves beside the ruts, and a young woman's flat refusal to be frightened by any of it.
