Helpful Score: 1
Thorough account of the struggles of the Donner Party as they journeyed from St Louis to California. The author uses the memoirs of Patty Reed, the daughter or James and Margaret Reed who was eight years old at the time. The book tells of the tragedy of being caught in the Sierra mountains and stranded for several months during one of the worst winters during that time period. Very well written.
