The Old West: The Forty-Niners

A smart man set up the store that sold the things these men needed. The rest of them (probably 98%) went home broke !

My husband had the entire set except for this one. I really didn't think we would find it since it had been over 25 years sincethe publish date. Amazon had brand new ones. He was elated. Good job!

Great condition.

Great pictures, great stories. I have four books out of the set and plan to buy more.
