Publisher's Synopsis
""A Journey To Great Salt-Lake City V1: With A Sketch Of The History, Religion And Customs Of The Mormons"" is a travelogue written by Jules Remy, a French geologist and explorer, about his journey to the city of Salt Lake in Utah, USA, in the mid-19th century. The book is divided into two volumes, and this first volume provides a detailed account of Remy's travels from St. Louis, Missouri, to Salt Lake City, including descriptions of the landscape, people, and culture he encountered along the way. Remy also provides a comprehensive overview of the history, religion, and customs of the Mormon community, which had settled in the Salt Lake Valley under the leadership of Brigham Young. This book is an important historical document that sheds light on the early years of the Mormon settlement in Utah and the attitudes of outsiders towards this religious community.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
