Traveling in a covered wagon along the Oregon Trail, Rachel Nathan must learn to swallow her prejudice against the Irish and those who are not the financial elite. When an accident claims the life of her father, she marries an Irish preacher in order to provide for herself and her younger brother. She knows nothing of trail life. Over night Rachel has gone from being the wealthy banker's daughter to the wife of this poor, Irish preacher named Patrick O'Riley, bound for Oregon in a covered wagon train. All of her experience warns her that she has married beneath herself, but Patrick's gentle kindness begins teaching her otherwise. She and her new husband and brother are left behind the wagon train when small pox breaks out, along with two other families. Only God can now get them safely to Oregon. This is book 1 of the series of Trails, but can stand alone without the following 3 books.
