Ordeal By Hunger
"Comes to life in horror and tragedy"-SaturdayReview
Eighty-seven people-men, women, and children-set out overland for California. At the insistence of a foolish guide, the ill-fated Donner Party braved a new route across a barren wasteland, only to reach the Sierra where they were trapped by snow and storms.
What followed is a tale of incredible hardship in which many perished and only a few survived-through the desperate extremes of cannibalism.
Plus: Actual accounts from the survivors diaries.
