In 1846 a group of families set out from the farm country outside Springfield, Illinois, led by George Donner, by wagon train for California. The Donner Party, as it came to be known, is now remembered chiefly for the suffering and cannibalism which resulted when the group was trapped in the snow in the Sierras without provisions for the winter. This is the epic poem of the Donner Party. Dust jacket has white spots where color is missing and some chips and small holes. Book has previous owner's name in ink on front free end page.
