The Danites In The Sierras

The Danites in the Sierras is a play in four acts written by Joaquin Miller and originally published in 1910. The story is set in the Sierra Nevada mountains of California during the Gold Rush era and follows a group of Mormons, known as the Danites, who are seeking a new home in the West. The play explores themes of love, loyalty, and betrayal as the Danites encounter challenges and conflicts with other settlers and groups in the region. The characters include the charismatic leader of the Danites, John Steele, his daughter, and a young man who falls in love with her. The play is notable for its vivid descriptions of the rugged landscape and its portrayal of the tensions between different religious and cultural groups in the American West.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
