The 19th Wife

So the MSN home page has these random slideshows about different topics, and I came across one about polygamy. It then lead me to read about Ann Eliza Young, the 19th wife of Brigham Young (the 2nd most famous Mormon leader, or something like that). She wrote a book which I think its like an exploitation of the late 1800's and what the Mormon women of her time were going through. I'm only a couple pages deep, but it's already intriguing. It's about 650 pages long online, so I always have the window open on my computer or in a link. If anyone wants to read it, here's the link

I'm excited to read this, and hopefully I'll be more educated on the subject of polygamy instead of false notions that I think I have, or who knows maybe they aren't false? Hm...

Anyway, I always love a good non-fiction intrigue.
