"Popular History of Utah is a comprehensive account of the history of Utah, written by Orson Ferguson Whitney and published in 1916. The book covers the period from the arrival of the first European explorers in the region to the early 20th century. Whitney provides a detailed description of the early settlements in Utah, the arrival of the Mormons, and their struggles and achievements in establishing a new society in the West. He also delves into the political, social, and economic changes that shaped the state's history, including the development of mining, agriculture, and transportation. The book is filled with interesting anecdotes and stories about the people who shaped Utah's history, including Brigham Young, John D. Lee, and other prominent figures. Whitney's writing style is engaging and accessible, making this book an excellent resource for anyone interested in the history of the American West or the development of the Mormon Church." [Amazon]
