I can't understand the 1-2 star reviews. I started this book and couldn't put it down. It rivals the "Alive" book written about the Andes survivors and in some ways it appears the "Alive" book stole the style of writing from the author McGlashen. This is a riveting/harrowing description of the most dreadful human suffering that can be described and yet it is filled with faith, hope and love. A must read for anyone seriously interested in the Donner Party trials and tribulations from the early mistakes made till the final rescue. 5 stars....or more!!!
