"What do most people think of when they hear the word “Utah”? In 2007 Governor Jon M. Huntsman Jr. and the Utah Offi ce of Tourism hoped that potential visitors and residents would relate to the new slogan, “Utah : Life Elevated, . . . a quick, easy way to remember what Utah does best : put you on high ground.” But describing Utah in two words was challenging. “The colors are so diverse, the mountains so majestic, the desert so mysterious. . . .We are summer. We are winter. We are historic. We are cultured. We are modern and progressive, but we still have true, laid-back authentic charm.”1 What is underneath these grand statements? What is Utah to those who live in the state, and how has it changed? What did it mean to Native Americans? How did their and others’ views differ from those of the Mormon majority who dominated in the state during the nineteenth and much of the twentieth centuries? What did Utah mean to twentieth-century immigrants from different regions? There may be as many answers as there are Utahns. And where Utahns may agree, other Americans may have completely different opinions. Nevertheless, there are commonly held images of the land, the people, and the experience." [Author]
