Abstract: A game of chance which entertains and educates by providing information on early American history, particularly the Western territories and personages associated therewith. Trails, reduced to a game board size, are sequentially traversed with figurine game pieces used as markers which impart historical perspective to the players. The players select certain trails and an associated figurine whose persona is assumed to enhance the enjoyment and educational aspect of the game. Action cards provide instructions in the form of rewards or penalties for moving the game pieces and furnish the participants with historical information which is germane to the era in which the events occurred. Certain instructions require a player to recite an imaginative story.
