Mormonism's Last Colonizer : The Life and Times of William H. Smart

Logan, UT

Utah State University Press

[2009 Mormon Historical Association Winner for Best Biography]
"Mormonism's Last Colonizer is an honest examination of an ancestor by his namesake. Included with the biography is a CD containing William H. Smart's extensive journals, which amounted to some ten thousand written pages--a monumental personal record of Mormondom and its transitional period from nineteenth-century cultural separation into twentieth-century national integration. . . . William H. Smart--nineteenth-century, patriarchal Mormon elder living in the twentieth century; a polygamist in an era when plural marriage was banned by his church; a fervently moral stake president who as a youth had struggled with his sense of sinfulness; and an entreprenurial businessman with theocractic communal instincts--set out to ensure that the Uinta Basin also would be part of the Mormon Kingdom."
