The Story of a Life in Bondage

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Ann Eliza Webb was born into Mormonism in 1844. Her first years were spent just across the road from Brigham Young. Ann Eliza was one year old when her mother became one of the first wives to be subject to polygamy. Her father helped build the wagons and handcarts of the pioneers that journeyed west; a trip that was fatal for many. Her family was an example of what a polygamous family should be, but from inside that family, she knew that all was not well.

Ann Eliza determined never to enter polygamy, but little did she know that as a woman in Utah during the Reformation period, she had no choice in the matter. Brigham Young, who held her as a baby, had his eye on her and wanted her for a wife.

Follow the story of Ann Eliza Webb Young from her birth to the eventual demise of her faith and her "marriage". Contemporary with John D. Lee's Mormonism Unveiled, and Tell It All by Fanny Stenhouse, this historical book gives a view of Mormonism not seen in today's retellings of Utah's colorful past.
