The Museum is delighted to share the Verdenal Journal, one of the gems of its collection, with lovers of Western history. In April 1852, twelve-year-old John Verdenal and his younger brother Dominique left St. Louis, Missouri with their parents in a wagon train heading for California. Their travel journal details the people they encountered and their challenges traversing rivers, prairies, deserts and mountains. The book introduces the boys prior to departure and follows them and their descendants into the 21st century.
