Paperback: Pictorial Wraps. Winner of the L.C. Bishop Award of the Wyoming State Historical Association for 1990. A discerning look into the hardships and misfortunes encountered by the emigrants along the Overland Trail (not to be confused with the Oregon Trail). The authors present reminisces and diaries of these pioneers in south-central Wyoming. The Bruning sisters cover history of the 1860's Overland Trail from its beginning in Julesburg, Colorado to its convergence with the Oregon Trail at Fort Bridger, Wyoming. Originally established as a stage, freight and mail route to Denver, the trail soon turned into a migratory path for westward emigrants headed north along the Colorado front range and then into Wyoming. The authors give an encapsulated history of each stage stop along the way with resulting events of the times. Indian hostilities and depredations were an ever-present challenge on the Overland Trail. There are wonderful recountings of the authors' early years growing up in the homesteaded area where the Overland Trail crossed their ancestors' land at Sulphur Springs, Wyoming. The diary of Ann Robertson Leap of her experiences during the winter of the early 1930's is fervent and deeply felt. Many rare and extraordinary photos accompany the text.…
