This is the spellbinding chronicle of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints' religious dawning and their beginning in the idyllic woods of New York state. It then follows their most challenging odyssey as they are driven out of their homes by great cruelty from four different states, and then finally completely out of the union itself. In the middle of the winter, women, children, and men were forced to cross the frozen Mississippi and head for their new home in the rocky mountains of Utah. After a year and a half of many trials on the trail, they finally made it to the great basin and settled alongside the Great Salt Lake to build a city. Fifty years later Utah became a most beautiful state of the union.

Autorenporträt
This is the author's fifth non-fiction book. He was raised on a dairy farm in north-eastern Utah where he learned that nothing gets done unless somebody is willing to put some back work into it. Therefore his books represent an average of three years work each with extensive research making them come alive with their very authentic imagery. After graduating from BYU with a BA degree, he was inducted into the army spending most of his tour at Fort Rucker Alabama. After the Army, the author worked in a cheese making factory, a camper shell factory, and then 11 years in the oil field as a consulting petroleum geologist. When the oil field suddenly died in the mid-eighties, he recertified as a school teacher and taught art history and the fundamentals of art for 20 years. He is now retired with his wife in St. George Utah.
