Wagons Away! a social studies primer on the early 1790's settlement of the Western Reserve (Ohio). This wonderful, easy-to-read story is told through the experience of the real Benjamin Stone who - in 1791 - was age 9 and, with his family, made the rugged trip from Rutland, Massachusetts, to the Ohio Territory. Benjamin's family found Marietta and Belpre, Ohio freshly constructed, there on the banks of the Ohio River.
