Amazon.com description: Product Description: Captain Ginn's manuscript is, without a doubt an unusual collection of events that occurred on the Western Frontier, in the volatile years of 1857 and 1858. There are uniquely interesting and highly detailed accounts of a most pertinent and intimate nature regarding the condition in Utah and the West in 1857-58, that up to this time, has never, to the best of my knowledge, been seen by the general public. Through this novel,you will witness secret Mormon rituals, and the dark side of the 19th century Mormon doctrine, like polygamy's vicious bite, forcing women both Mormon and non-Mormon to marry against their will, and so much more on the Mountain Meadows Massacre.
