This is an introductory article.
"We conceived this volume to be a scholarly introduction to Mormon environmental history as well as a spur to encourage historians to consider the role of nature in the Mormon past. These essays may be seen both as works of Mormon history that draw on the tools of environmental history and as works of environmental history that focus on a specific religious movement. They introduce overarching environmental ideas to other historians and students of history, while also examining particular aspects of nature and Mormonism."
