Oregon Pioneer Ewing Young and the Wallamette cattle venture
The narrative details Ewing Young and companions driving nearly 700 cattle from California to the Wallamette region across rough terrain in 1830s Oregon. It notes conflicts with California and Hudson’s Bay interests, leadership by Young, and the ensuing foundation of Oregon’s provisional government funded by Young’s estate.
