Across The Plains In The Donner Party is a memoir written by Virginia Reed Murphy, detailing her experiences as a member of the ill-fated Donner Party. The book chronicles the journey of the Reed and Donner families, who set out from Illinois in 1846 to travel to California. Along the way, they encountered numerous challenges, including harsh weather, difficult terrain, and dwindling supplies. Ultimately, they became stranded in the Sierra Nevada Mountains, where they were forced to resort to cannibalism in order to survive. Murphy's account provides a firsthand perspective on one of the most tragic events in American history, and offers a glimpse into the hardships and sacrifices endured by pioneers on the western frontier.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
