Vengeance Is Mine

Published in 2008, Massacre at Mountain Meadows was a bombshell of a book, revealing the story of one of the worst moments in Latter-day Saint history, when settlers in southwestern Utah slaughtered more than 100 members of a California-bound wagon train in 1857. In this much-anticipated sequel, Richard E. Turley Jr. and Barbara Jones Brown examine the aftermath of this horrific event, tracing the stories of perpetrators and survivors alike, showing how southern Utah leaders worked to silence participants and witnesses in an attempted cover up, and answering the question of what role, if any, Brigham Young played in the cover-up.
