On page iii a schematic is included that will illustrate the scope and sequence of both courses. Two recommendations that would greatly enhance the Westward Migration study from the California tract are: Cruise of the Arctic Starby Scott O'Dell and Jessie Benton Fremont: California Pioneerby Marguerite Higgins.
