About
Deals with events that took place at Winter Quarters (near Omaha, Nebraska) between 1846 and 1847, including the experiences of the Mormon Battalion, Lee's polygamous marriages and views on polygamy, the church practice of adoption, and other events in early Mormon history during this critical period after Saints were driven from Missouri. The partial journal from 1859 deals with the period when Lee went into hiding following accusations about his involvement in the Mountain Meadows Massacre, recounts events in southern Utah related to the Mountain Meadows Massacre, and includes a poignant description of Lee's separation from his families.
