Fascinating look into pioneer life in the mid-1800s. The author had the journals of the three real women to refer to as she researched this historical novel.
... It is beautifully written. It can invoke such strong emotions.
It is not a book about the Mountain Meadows Massacre... It is a book about three very different women who were involved in a polygamous marriage to one of the most strong willed and charismatic men of the time.
It is their stories of survive in a harsh place and in harsh times. Whether you agree with the doctrine of the Mormon Church of the time is irrelevant. This is a wonderfully written book of three women who along with the other Mormon women of the time changed the face of the west forever.
This book is more than worth your time and effort to read.
This is very well written and very well researched. It is a small insight to what Mormonism was under the eye of Smith and Young while it was still a living entity. It is also a beautiful insight to some of the most harsh and spectacular places on earth. amazon reviews
