Summary:
It is not surprising that Sorensen's first novel, written soon after she graduated from Brigham Young University in 1934, was on a Mormon theme -- loosely the story of her husband's grandmother. What is surprising is how successfully it captured the tone of mid-nineteenth-century Nauvoo, Illinois. [from publisher website]
