Query: This is NOT about the Donner Party

I will echo the other reviews posted here that were disapointed that the author did not spend more time on the actual Donner Party. This book follows the adventures of James Reed, who was exiled from the wagon train about a month before they ended up stranded at Donner Lake. Reed made it across the Sierra Nevada Range and into California and spends the rest of the book roaming the state trying to round up a rescue party.In the meantime, back at the Donner Party there is incredible human drama and tragedy. But this author chose to remain with the less interesting aspect of the story. I was very disapointed but recognize that the book is written with great skill and it was a fast read. So if you are interested in what James Reed was doing while the Donner Party members were resorting to cannibalism, this book is for you!
