About this listen

Early snowstorms caused the Donner Party to become stranded and lost in the mountains in the winter of 1846. This was the beginning of what would come to be the reason for the Donner Party to earn themselves a spot in the history books, murder, and Cannibalism.

Who was Albert Johnson, the Mad Trapper of Rat River? What drove this foul-tempered loner to become a murderer?

The Starving Time at Jamestown in 1609-1610.

An all but forgotten moment in history where many starving colonists resorted to cannibalism to stay alive.

The SS Sultana sinking produced a greater loss of life than the Titanic. Three of the boat's four boilers exploded and she burned to the waterline and sank near Memphis, Tennessee. The official count by the United States Customs Service of the dead was 1,547 with only 931 survivors. This maritime disaster is a sadly overlooked moment in history. Please allow me to tell you about it.
