Abstract

Don Hardesty and his contributors have given us a new perspective on the Donner Party tragedy of 1846-1847. The Archaeology of the Donner Party is a concise and well-written account of the history, archaeological investigations, and reinterpretation of the events. This slim volume is a model of multidisciplinary research and a team approach to producing a publicly oriented archaeological interpretation of interesting events of our recent past.
