Super informative. I learned so much about Utah and other things like Joshua tree from this book

A well-written, objective tome. I wish the author had discussed more on the legacies of Brigham Young: That Utah is still a virtual theocracy, and how the polygamy colonies in Arizona and Utah—where old men marry children—mirror "plural marriage" as practiced by Young in the 1840-70s. Brigham Young destroyed many lives while he lived and continues to harm millions more living today.

Really 3.5. This is a thorough book and Turner is surprisingly generous in his explanations of certain episodes. But I didn't get the feeling that this was something that he enjoyed. And, I'll admit it, I enjoy Brigham Young (foibles, errors, and all). So maybe this style of book just wasn't for me.
