Although, Dana’s fear is not about death, she fears never being able to establish a life somewhere to create a family because military men are always traveling or moving from city to city.

(…) You really have to be a self-motivated and strong-willed person. You spend a lot of time alone because he’s gone” (210).

In real life, also you can’t have anyone better to rely on than your family since your family I funds you when you need money and usually trusts and defends each other. On chapter eight, she hits a girl called Carly because she called Josie a ‘wog’.
Oregon Trail HIS/110 May 7, 2010 Professor: Priscilla MacDonald Oregon Trail Traveling on the Oregon Trail has been a journey that I do not think anyone can really prepare for.
