In the mid-1800s, many people were motivated to seek a better life in the West. The move required many sacrifices for those who made the decision to go. If you had lived at that time, do you think you would have been among the western settlers? Why or why not? What type of person do you think would be most attracted to this type of adventure? Explain.

I think I wouldn't have been attracted because I probably would already have had my business settled and been making my profits. Whereas if I had gone to the west then I would have had to start over. I think the majority of people who went to the west were people who were money seekers and who were looking to better their lives.
