Download To Stay Alive: Mary Ann Graves and the Tragic Journey of the Donner Party AudioBook Free
Told in riveting, keenly noticed poetry, a moving first-person narrative as experienced by a survivor of the tragic Donner Party of 1846. The journey western by wagon train claims to be long and arduous for nineteen-year-old Mary Ann Graves and her parents and eight siblings. Yet she is hopeful about their new life in California: flexibility from the requirements of family, maybe some relationship, better opportunities for any. However when winter comes early to the Sierra Nevada and their group gets a past due start, the Graves family, going alongside the Donner and Reed people, must endure one of the very most harrowing and storied journeys in American background. Amid the pain of reduction and the continuous threat of fatality from hunger or wintry, Mary Ann's is a narrative, informed wonderfully in verse, of a woman learning what it means to participate a family, to make sacrifices for those we love, and most importantly to persevere.
