The Indifferent Stars Above: The Harrowing Saga of a Donner Party Bride (P.S.)

“An ideal pairing of talent and material... Engrossing.” —Mary Roach, New York Times Book Review "Brown draws from the many previously published accounts of the tragedy... but he tells the tale with a novelist's touch." —Boston Globe Reminiscent of Into Thin Air, Miracle in the Andes, and the works of Tim O’Brien (The Things They Carried, Going After Cacciato) and Douglas Brinkley (The Wilderness Warrior, The Great Deluge), The Indifferent Stars Above by Daniel James Brown (Under a Flaming Sky) reveals the tragic story of the doomed Donner party, as seen through the prism of one young woman who survived.
