“In the year 1846,” The Ungodly begins, “men took their families west to California and a new life. The families of the Donner Party went among them.” Received with critical acclaim and long out of print, this first novel of the infamous covered-wagon pioneers who were caught in the high Sierra by early snow and forced eventually to eat their dead to survive is a scrupulously accurate reconstruction of their ordeal.
Richard Rhodes has published twenty-four previous works of history, fiction, and letters. A Kansas native, he lives above Half Moon Bay, California.
