FACTUAL REPRESENTATION NOT RETREAD HISTORY Folks, forgive me if I confess to a lack of knowledge about the valiant effort to save Oregon for the Union. But when you read this hair-raising story about the journey of a Congregation Minister and an Army General to set the record state with President Tyler, you are gonna be rewarded with a seldom found history of the area. Here is the story entitled THE 4400-MILE SURVIVAL ORDEAL OF LONG-CHANCE MARCUS WHITMAN and what a great story by a real western writer with an illustration by Frank Soltess. There were many a western story published – the common ones about Cowboys and Indians are listed on eCRATER every day but the rarer ones about the Trip to Save Oregon for the Union are seldom found. Collectors treasure them and their price guide value rises every day. They are hard to find. I hunt them out because really the better, untold and rarer stories were published in the rest. Here’s one of ‘em. FOLLOWING PURCHASE AND PAYMENT, IF YOU WILL WRITE ME OF YOUR SPECIAL NAME OR INTEREST, I WILL DO A FREE SEARCH OF MY COLLECTION AND UNINDEXED STORIES AND NAMES.

Following my retirement, I have dedicated my remaining hours to indexing the Genealogy of our western heroes. During my research, I discovered that thousands of our kinfolk lay unfound and unrecognized on some book dealer’s shelf gathering dust. Because Old Western History and Memorabilia was printed before computer indexing, I index every item I sell. This complete index will be bound and included in this offering at no additional cost. Humbly, I am trying to keep our history alive. I hope you appreciate the effort. THE 4400-MILE SURVIVAL ORDEAL OF LONG-CHANCE MARCUS WHITMAN By Emile C. Schurmacher Folks, sooner or later - Genealogists are going to realize that their family kinfolks are laying on some dealer's dusty shelves.

C. Webster-Ashburton Treaty THE 4400-MILE SURVIVAL ORDEAL OF LONG-CHANCE MARCUS WHITMAN By Emile C. Schurmacher While others clip ads from magazines, I save history. It’s a shame that our past is being lost. It’s as simple as that. My wife kids me that after I find a piece I like, buy it, read it, research it, take a picture, scan it, write the blurb, pay the eCRATER entry fee and commission, that I end up making about 50 cents an hour. But, OH HOW I LOVE THIS OLD WESTERN HISTORY. What a story, Rare Story!!! Great Pictures. You will love it as it was published in this old complete and seldom found western magazine of many years ago. This is a collectible issue nearly 50 years old. The suggested book value of some 10 years ago is nearly the price offered here. There were only two issues of this publication. The issue is in excellent condition, the cover is pristine and in vibrant color. As clearly stated in my description, this is featured story in a rarely found and seldom read unusual and complete western magazine. I don't give out name of publication or date because I have caught competitors copying my index and work and trying to sell it as theirs. I hope you understand.
