Synopsis
Mormon Settlement In Arizona is a historical book written by James H. McClintock. The book describes the settlement of Mormons in Arizona during the late 1800s and early 1900s. It provides a detailed account of the struggles and challenges faced by the Mormon pioneers as they established their communities in the harsh desert environment of Arizona. The book covers the history of the Mormon Church in Arizona, including the establishment of settlements such as Mesa, Snowflake, and St. Johns. It also delves into the social, economic, and political aspects of Mormon life in Arizona, including the role of women and the relationship between the Mormons and the Native American tribes in the area. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the American West, the Mormon Church, or the settlement of Arizona.One of the greatest of Hamblin's southern visitations was in the autumn of 1870, when he served as a guide for Major Powell eastward, by way of the Hopi villages and of Fort Defiance. Powell's invitation was the more readily accepted as this appeared to be an opening for the much-desired peace talk with the Navajo. In the expedition were Ammon M. Tenney, Ashton Nebecker, Nathan Terry and Elijah Potter of the brethren, three of Powell's party and a Kaibab Indian.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
