Bøger af John Gary Maxwell

Takes a detailed look at the Mormon colonization of the Bighorn Basin in 1900-1901, placing it in the political and socioeconomic climate of the time while examining whether the move to this out-of-the-way frontier was motivated in part by the desire to practice polygamy unnoticed.

In The Civil War Years in Utah, the first full account of the events that occurred in Utah Territory during that war, John Gary Maxwell contradicts the patriotic mythology of Mormon leaders' version of this dark chapter in Utah history.
