Grit and Gold: The Death Valley Jayhawkers of 1849 - Wilbur S. Shepperson Series in Nevada History
Jean Johnson
No other western story is more famous than the Donner Party's ill-fated journey through the Sierra Nevada. But three years later and several hundred miles south, another group faced a similar situation just as perilous. Scrupulously researched and documented, Grit and Gold tells the story of the Death Valley Jayhawkers of 1849.
