In Apr 1846, twenty-one-year-old Sarah Graves, objective on a better future, lay out western from Illinois with her new partner, her parents, and eight siblings. Seven calendar months later, after signing up for a party of emigrants led by George Donner, they come to the Sierra Nevada Mountains as the first heavy snows of the season closed the cross before them. In early on December, starving and eager, Sarah and fourteen others lay out for California on snowshoes and, over the next thirty-two days and nights, endured almost unfathomable hardships and horrors. With this gripping narrative, New York Times best-selling writer Daniel James Brown sheds new light on one of the very most infamous occurrences in American history. Following every unpleasant footstep of Sarah's trip with the Donner Party, Brown produces an account both spellbinding and richly interesting.
