The Reluctant Pioneer
The Reluctant Pioneer
"I've been fascinated by the Oregon Trail pioneers since I was a girl, and their courage continues to intrigue and inspire me. Julie McDonald Zander's debut novel captures the tumultuous journey of these pioneers through the heartbreaking trials and unwavering hope of one woman who began the trek to Oregon Territory in 1847 with her husband and four boys. The Reluctant Pioneer invites readers to join Matilda Koontz on the trail and experience her joy and sorrow as she perseveres in her husband's search for a new home. If you enjoy reading Jane Kirkpatrick's fiction or other historical novels about women who overcome tremendous hardship for the sake of their family, you'll love The Reluctant Pioneer!"
