Description: From St. Louis to Sutter's Fort, 1846 by Heinrich Lienhard translated and edited by Erwin G. and Elisabeth K Gudde is an account of Lienhard's journey with a group of emigrants he joined in St. Louis. Lienhard who was a Swiss emigrant kept a diary in German which in later years he reworked into one of the most extensive and detailed accounts by any traveler who crossed the plains before the gold rush. The portion of the diary which tells the story of the overland trip of the "Five German Boys" (which comprises the book) is the most interesting and valuable part of the journal from a historical point of view.
