Tree in the Trail by Holling Clancy Holling is a classic work of historical storytelling that traces the westward expansion of America through the life of a single cottonwood tree along the Santa Fe Trail.

First published in 1942, the book blends history, geography, and narrative in Holling’s signature style, with detailed illustrations that follow Indigenous peoples, traders, pioneers, and settlers as the landscape and nation change around the tree.

This thirteenth printing retains the richly illustrated maps, diagrams, and chapter artwork that have made the book a longtime favorite for young readers and collectors alike.

This copy shows general wear consistent with age, including light rubbing and edge wear to the cloth cover, most noticeable at the corners and spine ends. No dust jacket, illustrated boards.
