Echoes of the Heartland: Call of the West

From the 1830s to the 1900s, learn about the challenges and opportunities of the American Western Movement in Nebraska, including the lure of adventure and economic opportunities, the physical and emotional struggles, the importance and evolution of the Great Platte River Road on guiding travelers west, its impact on the Native tribes, the role of horses in the movement, and a reflection of the rural and small-town lifestyle in Nebraska, a culture for which many people yearn.
