Wagons to the Willamette: capitan Levi Scott ad the Southern Route to Oregon, 1844-1847

Stafford Hazelett JD ’83 edits this chronicle about Cpitan Levi Scott, who traveled west by the Oregon Trail in 1844, explored the Oregon Country, and guided wagon companies by the Southern Route to Oregon in 1846 and 1847. Scott’s reminiscence of the emigration years reveals a man of firm and friendly character and a careful observer of society.
