Donner Party 
Cookbook

A guide to survival on the Hastings Cutoff

Terry Del Bene combines a riveting narrative with his extensive knowledge of 19th century foods.  Like peeling an onion, this account strips the story to the hard truths of overland travel as the layers of social and cultural belief and action that resulted in the 1846 tragedy in the Sierra Nevada are uncovered.  There is nothing dry about the tale.
Terry Del Bene, Ph.D.
