"While acknowledging a recent increase in literature on Latter-day Saint women, Connie Lamb muses on the lack of books addressing various topics on early Utah women regarding spheres such as politics, suffrage, education, and everyday life. The Brigham Young University senior librarian details various resources—both in Mormon studies and other—available for free for anyone interested in exploring historical subjects or their own ancestors' lives. She discusses strategies for research and explains the types of documents available for research, how to access them, and specific titles. These include books, newspapers, websites and databases, archives and manuscripts, and specialized LDS Women's publications. She concludes by emphasizing the accessibility of these documents today and encouraging all to search the "treasure trove" of materials available." [Publisher]
