well can someone please help me with this????

Read the passages below from two types of sources about traveling on the Oregon Trail.
Saturday, April 23rd — Still in camp, it rained hard all night, and blew a hurricane almost. All the tents were blown down, and some wagons capsized. Evening — It has been raining hard all day; everything is wet and muddy. One of the oxen missing; the boys have been hunting him all day. Dreary times, wet and muddy, and crowded in the tent, cold and wet and uncomfortable in the wagon.—from the diary of Amelia Stewart Knight
The Oregon pioneers followed the trail that had been traced by explorers and the fur trappers. By the 1840s it became known as the Oregon Trail. The wagon caravans began their journey from towns along the Missouri River. . . . The settlers traveled in large groups. The big covered wagons were drawn by mules or oxen. The journey, about 2,000 miles (3,200 kilometers), was long and took about six months.—from a middle school history textbook

Sure, RuthMarie. What are your initial thoughts on the assignment? The directs are to "compare the type of information". So you have a first-person perspective (from the diary) and a factual, historical perspective from the textbook. What are some similarities and differences between those two sources?
