In 1852, Ezra Meeker, his wife, and baby traveled along the Oregon Trail by ox-cart from Iowa to Oregon. In 1906, he reversed his steps and went back to Iowa, and spent most of his ninety-eight years on earth traversing the route, promoting the Oregon Trail and founding the Oregon Trail Association. Published in 1822, his memoir Ox-Team Days remains a captivating account of his days along the trail and the harrowing adventures of a life devoted to its preservation.Â
