A Collection of Deseret's Pioneer Stories (circa 1884)

Once reading this collection of short histories, who will be able to forget the sacrifice and faith of the Latter-day Saint pioneers? Who wouldn't worry with the first settlers in Parawan as they guarded their walled town against Indian attacks; smiled with the settlers on the Sabbath day while an Indian chief compared the white man's dance to a demonstration of an Indian dance; mourned with an immigrant whose wife was stolen by Indians while coming west on the Mormon Trail; celebrated with the Saints as they witnessed answered prayers to protect their harvest against grasshoppers; and thrilled with a young boy caught between cliffs on an exploring activity? Sometimes flowery while other times quite plainspoken, these early stories from the pens of LDS pioneers are not only exciting, but an inspiration for all readers. 98 pages
