Description: Here, at last, is Brigham Young's own story in his own words, a compilation of his first-person writings from his manuscript history. This volume destroys once and for all the popular, but false image of Brigham Young as a tough, unspiritual colonizer who had no business calling himself a prophet of God. A very different man is found in his journal writings--a simple man who liked to work with his hands, a humble man constantly seeking guidance from his God, a strong man ready to wrestle or fight in defense of his friends, an intelligent man who could debate effectively with professors and lawyers, an affectionate man with many friends, and a loyal man who could be depended upon by his God and his people.
