43M510 “The Pioneers”
Dale Payne’s “The Pioneers” is based on The Lyman C. Draper Manuscripts but incorporates other historical documents as well.

What makes Dale Payne so priceless to those of us that research history is that he knows what is of value and of interest to us - review by Jim Cummings of Graphic Enterprises.
