   Description
Documented by trial transcripts, letters, journals, and diaries, Backus describes the events leading to the Mountain Meadows Massacre from the vantage point of her great-grandfather Philip Kingensmith who was a participant. An American tale as much as a Mormon one, the details of the massacre and its cover up (the men involved tried to blame the killing on Indians) are shocking only 13 children survived of a company of over 200 emigrants. It is a tale of Mormon church politics, racism, greed, and one man's lifetime of attempted atonement. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
