About
Angry mobs had forced Brigham Young and his fellow Mormons out of Ohio, Missouri, and Illinois. As leader of the Mormon Church, Young needed a safe place for his followers to live and worship freely. So with more than 5,000 Mormon settlers, Young crossed prairies, climbed mountains, and overcame hardship to reach his Promised Land, an unsettled region near the Great Salt Lake of Utah. Sometimes called the "American Moses," authors William R. Sanford and Carl R. Green explore the amazing life of this great pioneer.
