A Trip To Salt Lake City, 1870 Rating :
Product Description
This 2000 word monograph, originally published in the Girard Weekly Press (Girard, Kansas) in 1870, offers a unique glimpse of Salt Lake City and the Mormon settlers after the arrival of the First Transcontinental Railroad. While not sympathetic to the Mormon cause, the author paints a lively picture of Brigham Young's settlement and the of a new and growing community. Very interesting reading if you are planning a trip to modern Salt Lake City.
Editor's Note: The text has been painstakingly reproduced from the original document. Blatant typographical errors have been corrected but quaint spellings of the era have been preserved.
