Best Land under Heaven: The Donner Party in the Age of Manifest Destiny
by Wallis, Michael
|
|
Skeptical of previous accounts of how the group ended up in peril, Wallis has spent years retracing its ill-fated journey, uncovering new documents that illuminate how a combination of greed, backbiting, and recklessness led the group to become hopelessly snowbound. Wallis not only details the cannibalism that has haunted their legacy but also the heroic rescue parties that managed to reach the stranded, only to discover that just forty-eight had survived the ordeal. | |
