The Donner Party [The American Experience]

By

Burns, Ric

This is the companion site to a PBS documentary from 1998. It chronicles the harrowing tale of the ill-fated emigrant group who set out for the promised land of California in the spring of 1846, only to meet with disaster in the snows of the Sierra Nevada mountains the following winter. The site features background information, images, the program transcript, interviews with the author, and a bibliography.
