Hardcover. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good-. First Edition. Previous owner name inside front; Winter Quarters played an important part in the western migration of the Saints from Nauvoo. Those who partisipated in this migration, one of the largest in United States history, needed a way station when it became obvious that they would not make it to the Rocky Mountains before winter set in. What happened at Winter Quarters? Where was it located? Who lived there, who died there? How did the saints keep their courage and faith when their lives seemed so difficult, their trials many? Author Conrey Bryson has painted a vivid picture of the Winter Quarters experience, using many excerpts from the diaries and journals of those who knew Winter Quarters best - the people who lived there. Many of them will be immediately recognizable, such as Brigham Young and Parley P. Pratt. Others may not be instantly known, such as Patty Bartlett Sessions, who was a midwife during the trek and assisted in the birth of President Ezra Taft Benson's grandfather while en route to Winter Quarters. Based on journals, diaries, papers, history books , provides a comprehensive look at this era in Church history. The author writes: "St. Louis has it's mighty Gateway Arch to herald it as the 'gateway to the beginning of the Sante Fe Trail. The Winter Quarters story needs to be recognized too. It's contributions were many, and it's rich history and even richer results should never be forgotten. (taken from the dust jacket) . ; 6.25" x 9.25"; 179 pages; Very Good cover, now blackened out.

Bill Gulick s writing career, spanning more than six decades, is truly remarkable. He has written twenty-seven novels, eight nonfiction books and several plays. He was a regular contributor to The Saturday Evening Post and other national magazines. His stories have become major motion pictures starring screen legends Burt Lancaster and Jimmy Stewart. A list of his literary friends reads like a Who's Who of Western Writing Elmer Kelton, A. B. Guthrie, Max Evans, Don Coldsmith, Norman Fox, Tommy Thompson, William McCleod Raine, Nelson Nye and his mentor, Walter Stanley Vestal Campbell. Gulick is considered one of the foremost authorities on Pacific Northwest history. Gulick, a University of Oklahoma graduate, began his career writing for the Saturday Evening Post with a story about the Oregon Trail. He later went on to turn the story into the novel, Hallelujah Trail. The story was picked up by Hollywood along with two more of his stories, Bend of the River and Road to Denver. After nine months in Greenwich Village ( 43-44), he married Jeanne Abbot and began writing for Liberty, Colliers, and Esquire along with The Saturday Evening Post. It was shortly after the success of Bend of the River that Jeanne and Bill moved to Walla Walla, WA, where Bill still lives, though Jeanne passed on in 2001. After 64 years as a writer, Bill has 35 books to his credit; 28 of which are novels. Almost the entirety of his work encompasses the Northwest. He is a close friend of my father, David Cosby, owner of Earthlight Books in Walla Walla. We have inherited a large amount of his personal library and are making it available online, including books signed by and to Mr. Gulick. Signed by Author. …
