Summary: "Across the Plains to California in 1852: Journal of Mrs. Lodisa Frizzell" by Frizzell is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This journal recounts the overland journey made by Lodisa Frizzell and her family from Illinois to California during the mid-19th century, a time marked by westward expansion and the Gold Rush era. The narrative provides personal insights into the challenges, landscapes, and experiences faced by pioneers on this arduous trek.
