âThis
is a spectacular new documentary being aired on PBS nationwide. Produced
by John Krizek, OCTAâs Public Relations chair, the film tells the
wonderful, uplifting story of the nearly, and unfortunately, forgotten
Stephens-Townsend-Murphy party. The documentary has not only been
beautifully filmed, it has been meticulously researched. It draws
powerful and convincing conclusions about how this party of 50 emigrants
faced and triumphed over the same forces that totally defeated the
Donner Party 2 years later.â (Lesley Wischmann) |
