A very comprehensive book with beautiful illustrations.
By A Customer
I found this book to be very comprehensive. It provided me with the most complete listing of the participants in the Mormon Battalion of any of the books on the market and the illustrations were beautiful and refreshing. I would recommend this book for anyone who is searching for relatives who might have served in the Mormon Battalion, for this book provides more than just names and maps. It gives me insight into the lives of the people who served, not only through fine historical writing by Mr. Day but also through the many journal entries, letters and such that are included within the text. A definite plus for your addition on military or religious history.

Not Worth the Reading
By A Customer
I found this book of the Mormon Battalion to be the absolutely worse book I have ever read. It is nothing more than a reprint of other authors, sources and books. It is extremely poorly written, because the author himself published it. The history, facts and themes were incorrect and poorly developed. the author has no real understanding of the subject, the Mexican War and the primary sources. I cannot recommend this book.
