History of the Donner Party: A Tragedy of the Sierra is a non-fiction book written by C.F. McGlashan. The book chronicles the events leading up to and during the Donner Party's ill-fated journey to California in 1846. The Donner Party consisted of a group of pioneers who set out for California from Illinois, but became stranded in the Sierra Nevada mountains due to poor planning, bad luck, and harsh winter conditions. The book provides a detailed account of the party's struggles, including their efforts to survive by resorting to cannibalism. McGlashan's book draws on first-hand accounts, diaries, and other historical documents to provide a comprehensive and gripping narrative of this tragic event in American history. The book is considered a classic of Western American history and has been widely read and studied by scholars and general readers alike.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
