A journey from Fayette County, Pennsylvania to Fairfield County, Ohio, would take a matter of hours today. But for Joanna Huber and her family, moving to the western frontier in 1803, this would be a long trip full of danger and adventure. They start off with a Conestoga wagon drawn by four horses, but when they come to Pittsburgh they load everything onto a flatboat and float down the Ohio River. Indians...bears...and river pirates...there's lots of excitement in store! Along the way, 10-year-old Joanna learns about the journey of faith, where God's love is the guiding light as we travel through life.
