Publisher's Synopsis

""Mormon Settlement In Arizona"" is a historical book written by James H. McClintock that delves into the establishment of Mormon colonies in Arizona during the late 19th century. The book provides a detailed account of the migration of Mormon pioneers from Utah to Arizona and the challenges they faced in settling in a new and unfamiliar terrain. It covers topics such as the establishment of towns, the building of homes and infrastructure, and the cultivation of crops and livestock. The book also explores the social and cultural life of the Mormon settlers, including their religious practices, education, and interactions with other communities. Overall, ""Mormon Settlement In Arizona"" provides a comprehensive and informative look into the history of Mormon colonization in Arizona and its impact on the state's development.One of the greatest of Hamblin's southern visitations was in the autumn of 1870, when he served as a guide for Major Powell eastward, by way of the Hopi villages and of Fort Defiance. Powell's invitation was the more readily accepted as this appeared to be an opening for the much-desired peace talk with the Navajo. In the expedition were Ammon M. Tenney, Ashton Nebecker, Nathan Terry and Elijah Potter of the brethren, three of Powell's party and a Kaibab Indian.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
