Hard Cover. Condition: Very Good +. No Printing Stated. Unlike previous authors, Eugene Campbell describes a rugged people at the frontier of the 19th- century American West. Like other immigrants, Mormon pioneers fought Indians -- sometimes taking scalps -- battled mountain men, and supported vigilante justice. President James Buchanan even sent 2,000 troops to the desert territory to subdue the reportedly rebelious Mormons. Angry Utahans responded by waging guerilla warfare and adopting scorched-earth policy. Even after the military campaign, the Mormons continued to assert their independence. All to establish their community -- the new Zion. 346 pages including index. Book ever-so-slightly cocked from previous reading. Dust jacket has a couple of tiny, mended tears. Lovely copy overall.

Paperback. Condition: New. Brand new softcover book! Never been read! ; Ed Snow mixes nostalgia and humor equally in his musings about things Mormon. For instance, in singing "Tit-Willow" as a youth (remember the old Recreational Songs book? ) , the resulting giggles are vivid in his mind. Or, as another example, the unusual fulfillment of the "gift of tongues" in the Swiss mission. That happened when Ed and his companion received a local beef tongue delicacy from a grateful convert. Poker faces all around. The author continues to find moments of guilty pleasure in his current Sunday school class, every time an Alexander Pope saying is attributed to President David O. McKay, or when "Zeezrom" was defined as meaning "dirty, stinking lawyer" in Egyptian. (Actually, Ed contributed that nugget. ) Ah, it's good being Mormon! Ed proclaims. There is great comfort in the rhythms of church life. And, as Ed believes, there MUST be a higher purpose to all of this! ; 5.5" x 8"; 132 pages.

After completing his doctorate in history at Yale University in three years, he taught at Brigham Young University from 1976 to 1988. His treatment of difficult themes in Mormon history drew controversy, which led to resignation from his academic position and to his eventual excommunication from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

Paperback. Condition: New. First edition. 106pp. Octavo. [23cm] Photographically illustrated wraps. "Martha Hughes Cannon (1857-1932) may best be known as the first female state senator in the United States, elected in Utah in 1896, nearly a quarter century before most women in the country could vote. She was also a suffragist, physician, gifted speaker, plural wife, faithful member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and mother of three. This short biography examines what drove Cannon to accomplish so much. Following two periods of self-imposed exile to avoid prosecution for polygamy, and a subsequent career in partisan politics, she died in California, surrounded by her children and grandchildren but virtually forgotten by the larger world. She had much to say during her lifetime and has much to say to us today about persevering in spite of adversity. Constance Lieber chronicles the important story of one of the American West's and Mormonism's most intriguing characters.".

Paperback. Condition: New. Brand new softcover book! Never been read! ; Thirteen years before the railroad was built, approximately 2,000 Utah-bound immigrants reached Iowa City only to find that they could not afford rigs and teams for the remaining overland trek. So these resourceful Europeans decided to strike out for the promised land on foot, pulling makeshift, hand-drawn carts oxen-like approximately 1,000 miles across the Great Plains and Rocky Mountains. Three out of five companies arrived safely, while another two became bogged down in early winter snows in Wyoming. When Brigham Young heard about their plight, he complained about their lack of judgment and preparation, but he dispatched search parties to try to locate them and provide safe passage, knowing the rescuers would risk their own lives in the process. When the immigrant companies were found, many had died and the rest were near starvation. The survivors were resuscitated and gathered together to trudge through the mounting snow drifts the remaining distance to Salt Lake City. A noteworthy aspect of the handcart pioneers' diaries is that none expressed regret, either for their own decisions or for the stigma that was attached to them for their ineptitude and lack of funds. Instead they tell of their hardships in a matter-of-fact way, including all the harsh details, while also articulating their remarkable determination and faith, and expressing gratitude for their intrepid rescuers. A Salt Lake City memorial commemorates their achievement. The handcart has become an icon that represents the collective heroism of all those who walked the Mormon trail, despite the fact that some carried a disproportionately heavier load than others, most notably the handcart immigrants. This book tells the true story behind the legend. ; Charles Redd monographs in western history series no. 11 Series; 6" x 9"; 72 pages;

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Cover has some light edge and corner wear.; Some left, some stayed. Each one found some aspect of their church's history, doctrine, policies, or politics that they could not reconcile with their own personal ethics. Some felt burdened by the conflict, while others embraced it. A few were reticent, even apologetic about their disagreements. Others were barnstormers. Each possessed some quality that destined him or her to ride at the fringes rather than at the center. Mormon Mavericks summarizes a few famous flashpoints in Mormon history; more importantly, it provides a telling study in human nature. Each contributor is an expert in his or her discipline, and all approach their topic with equal doses of sympathy and objectivity.

Paperback. Condition: New. Brand new softcover book! Never been read! ; Dramatic geographical formations tower over the Four Corners country in the southwestern United States. The mountains, cliffs, and sandstone spires, familiar landmarks for anglo travelers, orient Navajos both physically and spiritually. In Sacred Land, Sacred View, Robert McPherson describes the mythological significance of these landmarks. Navajos read their environment as a spiritual text: the gods created the physical world to help, teach, and protect people through an integrated system of beliefs represented in nature. The author observes that the Middle East is of "no greater import to Christians than the Dine's holy land is to Navajos." He continues: "Sacred mountains circumscribe the land, containing the junction of the San Juan River and Mancos Creek, where Born for Water invoked supernatural aid to overcome danger and death and where, at the Bear's Ears formation, good triumphed over evil." The more one learns about the Dine, the more one inevitably admires their way of perceiving and interpreting what lies just beyond the focus of human vision. Their renowned respect for nature, and their way of living in harmony with the environment, derive from their religious traditions.; Charles Redd Monographs in Western History Series No. 19 Series; 6" x 9"; 152 pages;

Cover has some light edge and corner wear. ; In his personal diaries Joseph Smith, the Mormon prophet, emerges as a believable and human religious leader, willing to allow both descendants and followers a complete look at his innovative beliefs and complex personality. "I enjoyed myself by my own fireside with many friends around me, " he recalled of a quiet moment at home. "I drank a glass of beer at Moisser's, " he dictated with equal frankness. An enthusiast for winter activities, Smith would often close his office whenever it snowed to go sledding with his son Frederick or to take his wife Emma sleighing.Published for the first time in their entirety, the personal diaries of Mormon founder Joseph Smith (1805-44) provide an unequaled view of this controversial American religious leader. Previous compilations of carefully selected and sometimes rewritten passages of Smith's diaries and journals do not capture the intensity of the present, unexpurgated edition. ; 6" x 9"; 576 pages.

From there, opinions diverge as to whether, for instance, the religious influence in Utah indicates a healthy regional democracy (the Founding Fathers' intent) or whether, especially for those not of the dominant church, Utah presents (1) minor inconveniences compared to colonial America, when Puritans were regularly beheading Quakers or (2) an intolerable, oppressive climate exactly what the Constitution intended to prohibit. In this volume, some of the most respected legal, historical, philosophical, and theological minds in Utah approach these questions from various perspectives. ; 6" x 9"; 384 pages.
