DESCRIPTION - Weathering the Storm is a unique look at this classic western tale of the struggle for survival as powerful snowstorms during the winter of 1847 trapped eighty-one California-bound pioneers in the High Sierra. Fresh, dramatic, and insightful, this book focuses on how extreme weather challenged the emigrants and their heroic rescuers. This 192-page book is well-illustrated with historical photographs, as well as many previously unpublished images depicting winter weather conditions at the encampment areas. This book also covers recent archaeology and forensic discoveries, tree ring climate reconstruction, American warship deck logs and an illustrated history of rare San Francisco snowstorms. inventory #46521.…
