The reading will begin at 2 p.m. at the Lake County Courthouse Museum, 255 N. Main St., Lakeport.
Bill Groody, president of the Friends of the Lake County Museum will read from an oral history of Bill Hanson.
Hanson, in his later years, wrote down his recollections of crossing the plains by wagon train in 1849, when he was just 9 years old.
His story comes alive with vivid details of surviving a cholera epidemic, watching a buffalo stampede and the suffering he saw and experienced when crossing the desert with very little food or water.
Admission is free and refreshments will be served.
Two more readings are scheduled in this series, on Aug. 20 and Sept. 17.
For more information please call the museum at 707-263-4555.
