School Library Journal : "They do have a simple attractive format that makes them accessible to young audiences. Even in these brief introductions, the author avoids judging these ancient societies by modern-day values. Full-color photos, maps, and reproductions are plentiful and add interest to the texts."
-- School Library Journal (September 2002)
School Library Journal : "Befitting the series title, the book gives a personalized version of this historical movement and the cultural and political elements of the time are firmly in the background."
-- School Library Journal (September 2002)
School Library Journal : "The author presents his information clearly without fictionalizing, and offers some first-person accounts by period writers. The layout is clear and logical. An informative introduction that will have some appeal for reluctant readers."

Book Description
During the 1800 pioneers made their way across the United States in search of new and prosperous land. Despite illness, lack of food, and challenging weather the pioneers never looked back. Families settled on their new land and the American Frontier was born. Before long whole towns grew around the homes and began to shape America as we know it today. This book tells of the daily life on the American Frontier, from what people ate and how they dressed, to where and how they lived and went to school.
