This classic antique western novel, The Covered Wagon, depicts the perilous 1848 journey of pioneers traveling from Missouri to the Oregon Territory.

This specific copy is a 1922 first edition from Grosset & Dunlap. Although the book shows its age, it serves as a solid, readable copy for any history enthusiast. The spine is faded and slightly cocked, and the cover corners show minor bumps. You will find light abrasions on the exterior and some tattered edges on the spine. Inside, the binding exposes the webbing at the contents page, and the title page is missing. Furthermore, some pages contain foxing, small dog-ears, and occasional light pencil marks. Despite these cosmetic issues, this historical volume remains intact and full of character. Since we only have one copy in stock, act quickly to add this vintage piece to your collection.
