Abstract
Description
Conestoga wagons were important to the history of the United States, but not in the way most people think. When one thinks about western migration and settlement in the 1800s, there usually is an indelible image of long lines of canvassed wagons rambling along the Great Plains. This is a misconception.
These wagons were unique heavy duty freight wagons which were too heavy for the prairies.
They were primarily used in the eastern United States and Canada.
