| “ | The tragic story of the Donner Party remains one of the most memorable events connected with the settlement of the West but it is often exaggerated and laced with myth. In this work Hardesty and his colleagues detail findings from excavations at two campsites used by the group near present-day Donner Lake and offer a new interpretation of the history of the Donner Party based on careful analysis of discovered artifacts. | ” |
