An important source of information concerning the tragic Donner episode, the most famous tragedy in the history of the westward migration.
The Donner Party was a group of California-bound American immigrants snowbound in the Sierra Nevada in the winter of 1846–1847. Almost ninety wagon train emigrants- farmers, merchants, parents, children - were unable to cross the Sierra Nevada and almost one-half starved to death. In this volume Charles Fayette McGlashan describes the great hardships they endured on their way.
