The Indifferent Stars Above: The Harrowing Saga of a Donner Party Bride by Daniel James Brown
dark
informative
reflective
slow-paced
5.0
A fantastic historical non-fiction read. The research that went into this book and the way that the information is presented is fabulous. This is a historical non-fiction book that caused me to go into a reading slump -- not because this book was bad, but because I had a hard time finding other books that were as well written.
