Book excerpt: John Doyle Lee (1812-1877) was one of the most controversial figures of early Mormon history. A fervent convert, he was adopted by Brigham Young and rose to become a leading member of the church's hierarchy. Lee left behind a number of colorful diaries that reveal in fascinating clarity and detail the everyday life of Utah's pioneer settlers. In them, he describes his close relationship with Brigham Young, his experiences in converting Native Americans to Mormonism, his trials with farming and livestock, his encounters with his 19 wives, and his eventual exile to the barren wastelands of Lee's Ferry. In the 1950s, five of Lee's diaries in the Huntington collections were meticulously edited and annotated by historians Robert Glass Cleland and Juanita Brooks and published in two volumes by the Huntington Library in 1955 to great acclaim as A Mormon Chronicle, The Diaries of John D. Lee, 1848-1876. The University of Utah Press kept the book in print until the 1990s; it has now been reprinted as a Huntington Library Classic with a new foreword by Andrew Rolle, a Huntington research fellow and retired Cleland Professor of History from Occidental College. In his foreword, Rolle discusses the collaboration between Cleland, a leading historian of the Southwest, and Brooks, a notable scholar of Mormon history.

Book Synopsis Blood of the Prophets by : Will Bagley
Download or read book Blood of the Prophets written by Will Bagley and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 2012-09-06 with total page 556 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The massacre at Mountain Meadows on September 11, 1857, was the single most violent attack on a wagon train in the thirty-year history of the Oregon and California trails. Yet it has been all but forgotten. Will Bagley’s Blood of the Prophets is an award-winning, riveting account of the attack on the Baker-Fancher wagon train by Mormons in the local militia and a few Paiute Indians. Based on extensive investigation of the events surrounding the murder of over 120 men, women, and children, and drawing from a wealth of primary sources, Bagley explains how the murders occurred, reveals the involvement of territorial governor Brigham Young, and explores the subsequent suppression and distortion of events related to the massacre by the Mormon Church and others.
Download or read book Mormonism Unveiled written by John D. Lee and published by . This book was released on 1877 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mormonism Unveiled is John Doyle Lee's confessional exposé of malpractices in the Mormon Church, including his own role as an assassin responsible for several murders. In chronicling his years as a member of the church, Lee discusses how he came to meet and associate with Joseph Smith; the founder and prophet of Mormonism. The processes by which the charismatic Smith drew in followers is cataloged, while personal habits including the notorious practice of polygamy - the taking of multiple wives - are also mentioned. Lee himself partook enthusiastically in polygamy, taking a total of nineteen wives and siring some fifty-six children. After the death of Joseph Smith by the hands of an angry mob in 1844, Brigham Young assumed control of the Mormon Church. It was under Young that several of the most controversial schemes associated with Mormonism entailed. For his part John D. Lee became an enforcer, carrying out orders from Brigham Young in appropriating the belongings of fellow Mormons, such as cattle from impoverished ranchers. Most controversially, Mormonism Unveiled contains confessions by John D. Lee regarding assassinations he was ordered to carry out by Brigham Young. The veracity of these and other claims are disputed to this day. It was however Lee's role in the Mountain Meadows massacre of 1857 that would eventually see him tried, convicted and hung for murder in 1877. This edition includes all of the original appendices, as well as the complete text.
