oseph Smith, the founding prophet of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and of the broader Latter-day Saint movement, produced several volumes of scripture between 1827, when he began translating the Book of Mormon, and 1844, when he was murdered. The Book of Mormon, published in 1830, is well known. Less read and studied are Smith's subsequent translated texts that he presented as the writings of ancient Old World and New World prophets.

These works were published and received by early Latter-day Saints as prophetic scripture that included important revelations and commandments from God. This collaborative volume is the first to study Joseph Smith’s translation projects in their entirety.

In this carefully curated collection, experts contribute cutting-edge research and incisive analysis. The chapters explore Smith’s translation projects in focused detail and in broad contexts, as well as in comparison and conversation with one another. Authors approach Smith’s sacred texts from historical, textual, linguistic, and literary perspectives to offer a multidisciplinary view. Scrupulous examination of the production and content of Smith’s translations opens new avenues for understanding the foundations of Mormonism, provides insight on aspects of early American religious culture, and helps conceptualize the production and transmission of sacred texts.

Michael Hubbard MacKay is associate professor in the Department of Church History and Doctrine at Brigham Young University and a former historian and coeditor at the Joseph Smith Papers project.

he first book-length treatment of Utah’s distinctive food heritage, this volume contains work by more than sixty subject-matter experts, including scholars, community members, event organizers, journalists, bloggers, photographers, and food producers. It features recipes and photographs of food and beverages. Utah’s food history is traced from precontact Native American times through the arrival of multinational Mormon pioneers, miners, farmers, and other immigrants to today’s moment of “foodie” creativity, craft beers, and “fast-casual” restaurant-chain development. Contributors also explore the historical and cultural background for scores of food-related tools, techniques, dishes, traditions, festivals, and distinctive ingredients from the state’s religious, regional, and ethnic communities as well as Utah-based companies. In a state much influenced by Latter-day Saint history and culture, iconic items like Jell-O salads, funeral potatoes, fry sauce, and the distinctive “Utah scone” have emerged as self-conscious signals of an ecumenical Utah identity.

Scholarly but lively and accessible, this book will appeal to both the general reader and the academic folklorist.

A unique memoir combining oral history and creative nonfiction to tell the story of eight Mormon sisters from Yorkshire, England

ALSO OF INTEREST

n this revealing family memoir, best-selling author Ann Chamberlin explores the lives of her Mormon grandmother, Frances Lyda, and the seven sisters who grew up desperately poor in Bradford, Yorkshire, in the early years of the twentieth century. Chamberlin’s narrative follows these eight daughters of Mary Jane Jones and Ralph Robinson Whitaker, most of whom were forced by necessity to abandon school at age twelve and find work in terrible conditions at a local factory. When Mary Jane converted to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in 1901, she became the backbone of the Mormon community in Yorkshire. Her daughters followed their mother into her faith, while navigating their own sometimes tragic ways into adulthood, with all but one eventually moving to Utah. All gifted and strong individuals in their own right, many of the Whitaker sisters overcame long odds and incredible hardships to carry on and prosper in Salt Lake City.

Chamberlin interviewed her grandmother and six of her surviving great-aunts. She weaves novelistic passages with their first-person narratives to create a singular work of immigrant and family history that is both lively and revealing.

Ann Chamberlin is the best-selling author of fourteen historical novels and numerous plays produced around the United States. Her recent books include The Book of Wizzy and The Sword and the Well trilogy.

"Rich and informative, Chamberlin is a really gifted writer who gives the reader vivid insights into the social history of the time and place where these women lived, while at the same time bringing them and their family members to life in such a way one can almost smell the blood and sweat.”

lthough unions are by no means entirely gone or lacking in lobbying power, their membership in traditional industries is on the decline and their influence is diminishing. Only a generation ago, large unions such as the United Mine Workers of America held great political and economic capital and inspired millions beyond their immediate ranks. In this book, Christian Wright explores the complex history of the UMWA and coal mining in the West over a fifty-year period of the twentieth century, concentrating on the coal miners of Carbon and Emery Counties in Utah. Wright emphasizes their experiences during the 1970s, which saw the rise and demise of American workers’ most successful postwar effort to internally reform a major labor organization: the Miners for Democracy movement.

Wright explores how and why Miners for Democracy and nonunion mining raced to control coal’s future, touching on the UMWA’s regional origins during and immediately after the New Deal. Using sophisticated demography, Wright details how miners’ racial, gender, and generational identities shaped their changing relationships to mining and organized labor, while also illustrating the place of nonunion miners, antiunion employers, ethnic minorities, women, and the unemployed in transforming “Carbon County, USA.” Drawing on a variety of primary sources, Wright provides evidence for organized labor’s continuing significance and value while effectively illuminating its mounting frustrations during a relatively recent chapter in the history of Utah and the United States.

Christian Wright is an environmental and labor historian in Moab, Utah. He is a member of the Utah State Historical Society, the Western History Association, and Grand Canyon River Guides.

orth America’s Galapagos: The Historic Channel Islands Biological Survey recounts the story of a group of scientific researchers, naturalists, and adventurers who came together in the late 1930s to embark upon a series of ambitious expeditions. Their mission: to piece together the human history and biological evolution of California’s eight Channel Islands. Sometimes called “North America’s Galapagos,” each island supports unique ecosystems with varied flora and fauna and differing human histories.

The thirty-three men and women who set out to explore the islands hoped to make numerous discoveries and became famous. A lack of funds and dearth of qualified personnel dogged the pre-WWII expeditions, but after America entered the war and the researchers were stranded on one of the islands, the survey was aborted and their work left for future scientists to complete.

This saga of adventure and discovery is juxtaposed against the fresh successes of a new generation of Channel Island scholars, illuminating the scientific process and revealing remarkable modern discoveries.

Corinne Heyning Laverty is a research associate and fellow at the Natural History Museum, Los Angeles County, and an associate of the Santa Cruz Island Foundation.

orro Bay is one of more than thirty major estuaries where prehistoric people thrived along the California coast, yet for much of the twentieth century these systems were deemed insignificant within the broader outline of New World prehistory. Recent research, however, has shown that estuaries were magnets for human occupation as early as 10,000 years ago. This book combines archaeological data from excavations completed between 2003 and 2014 with other studies from Morro Bay to reveal an overlooked yet remarkable history of cultural change and adaptation. Over the last 8,000 years, as the bay evolved toward its current configuration, inhabitants endured earthquake and drought, regularly adjusting their settlement practices but continuing to fish and collect shellfish. These populations grew against a backdrop of resource diversity and habitat variation, ultimately leaving behind evidence of a unique human-estuary ecological relationship.

The Hunt for Sir Francis Drake’s Fair and Good Bay Melissa Darby

Challenges the long-held belief that Drake’s party landed in California

n the summer of 1579 Francis Drake and all those aboard the Golden Hind were in peril. The ship was leaking and they were in search of a protected beach to careen the ship to make repairs. They searched the coast and made landfall in what they called a "Fair and Good Bay," generally thought to be in California.

They stacked the treasure they had recently captured from the Spanish on this sandy shore, explored the country, repaired the ship, and set sail for home.

Thunder Go North unravels the mysteries surrounding Drake’s famous voyage and summer sojourn in this bay.

Comparing Drake’s observations of Native houses, dress, foods, language, and lifeways with ethnographic material collected by early anthropologists, Melissa Darby makes a compelling case that Drake and his crew landed not in California but on the Oregon coast. She also uncovers the details of how an early twentieth-century hoax succeeded in maintaining the California landing theory and silencing contrary evidence. Presented here in an engaging narrative, Darby’s research rewrites the history of this event.

Melissa Darby is research scholar in the Department of Anthropology at Portland State University and a private consultant in cultural resource management.

She masterfully weaves a tale of political intrigue, fraud, and ego into an academic treatise that reads more like a historical mystery novel. Sometimes truth can be stranger than fiction!”

Author Melissa Darby presents a compelling case that Drake most likely came ashore on the central coast of Oregon—far to the north of Drake’s Bay, near San Francisco, the allegedly ‘long-settled’ answer to that question. Darby’s conclusions cannot be ignored by Drake scholars or others hoping to unlock this nearly 450-year-old puzzle. In addition, Thunder Go North reveals the incredibly tangled web of intrigue, duplicity, and hoax that has bedeviled past historians’ efforts to answer the ‘Where did Drake land?’ question.”

olor attracts attention, evokes emotions, conveys information, carries complex meanings, and makes things beautiful. Color is so meaningful, in fact, that research on the color choices of Ancestral Pueblo people has the potential to deepen our understanding of religious, social, and economic change in the ancient Southwest. This volume explores museum collections and more than a century of archaeological research to create the first systematic understanding of the many ways Ancestral Pueblo people chose specific colors through time and space to add meaning and visual appeal to their lives.

Beginning with the technical and practical concerns of acquiring pigments and using them to create paints, the authors explore how connections to landscapes and sacred places are embodied by many colorful materials. Contributors examine the development of polychromes and their juxtaposition with black-onwhite vessels, document how color was used in rock paintings and architecture, and consider the inherent properties of materials, arguing that shell, minerals, and stone were valued not only for color but for other visual properties as well. The book concludes by considering the technological, economic, social, and ideological factors at play and demonstrates the significant role color played in aesthetic choices.

This book explores the complex meaning and significance of caricature art drawn to support the ascendant Egyptian Wafd political party and its push for independence from British colonial control. The works of previously neglected Egyptian lithographers are also explored, especially those who adopted sophisticated European techniques while experimenting with a variety of new styles during a remarkable period in Egyptian history.

Caricature art by Wafd party artists was almost sui generis. It is distinguished especially by its sincere use of iconic, folkloric imagery, intended to rally nationalistic sentiments among an emerging Egyptian electorate that included many nonliterate citizens. Cannon’s research breathes new life into an influential yet largely forgotten artistic movement in Egypt, one that deserves recognition for its contribution to Egypt’s share of modern Middle East cultural history.

It serves as a catalogue of hitherto largely unknown graphic images of great historical value, and it offers an analytical history based on those images that enriches our understanding of the politics, culture, and society of early twentieth-century Egypt. In addition to the author’s many insights, the publication in color of so many original posters and cartoons serves as a valuable primary source for future interpretations by others.”

The Last Ottoman Wars The Human Cost, 1877–1923 Jeremy Salt

A timely study of warfare and its effects on civilian life in the Ottoman Empire

September 2019, 432 pp., 6 x 9 6 maps eBook 978-1-60781-705-5 Hardcover 978-1-60781-704-8 $40.00s

uring the last half-century of its existence, the Ottoman Empire and the lands around its borders were places of constant political turmoil and unceasing military action. The enormous costs of war were paid not only by politicians and soldiers, but by the Ottoman civilian population as well. This book examines the hardships that ordinary people of all faiths endured during decades of warfare.

Jeremy Salt explores previously ignored facts that disrupt the conventional narrative of an ethno-religious division between Muslim perpetrators and Christian victims of violence. Salt shows instead that all major ethno-religious groups were guilty of violent acts.

The result is a more balanced picture of European involvement in the Ottoman Empire and the Balkans.

This extraordinary story centers not on military campaigns but on the civilians whose lives were disrupted and in many cases destroyed by events over which they had no control. Disease, malnutrition, massacres, and inter-communal fighting killed millions of people during the First World War. Until now, this record of human suffering has remained a story largely untold.

Jeremy Salt retired in 2015 as associate professor in the Department of Political Science and Public Administration at Bilkent University, Ankara. He is the author of several books.

"This book is especially notable in its detailed coverage. The author brings together much material that has previously only been considered in separate works. He covers a broad range of time and geography yet remains focused on a central theme—the effect of the end of the Ottoman Empire on the Ottoman peoples. The assertions in the book are balanced and well proven.”

Explores the fate of Muslims in Ottoman Bulgaria during the Russo-Ottoman War

uring the Russo-Ottoman War of 1877–1878, Russian troops, Cossack auxiliaries, and local Bulgarians participated in what today would be called ethnic cleansing. Tensions in the Balkans between Christians and Muslims ended in disaster when hundreds of thousands of Muslims were massacred, raped, or forced to flee from Bulgaria to Turkey as their villages were sacked and their homes destroyed.

In this book, William H. Holt tells the story of a people and moment in time that have largely been neglected in modern Turkish and Balkan memory. Holt uncovers the reasons for this mass forgetting, finding context both within the development of the modern Turkish state and the workings of collective memory.

Bringing together a wide array of eyewitness accounts, the book provides unprecedented detail on the plight of the Muslim refugees in their flight from Bulgaria, in Istanbul, and in their resettlement in Anatolia. In crisp, clear, and engaging prose, Holt offers an insightful analysis of human suffering and social memory.

William H. Holt received a master’s degree from the University of Utah’s Middle East Studies program in 2014.

"Holt presents new data, a discourse about the lack of data, and frames the problem within new theories about memory and history. At the same time, the book is very engaging, even when the subject matter is dark and disturbing. Holt has a good writing style that flows and does not become overly technical. It is accessible for the general reader as well as for the college student.”

he Lacandon Maya are a small-scale forest society currently on the brink of extinction. Small groups of Northern Lacandon escaped evangelization by dispersing into the jungle, moving from the Guatemalan Petén to Chiapas in southern Mexico during the seventeenth, eighteenth, and nineteenth centuries. Several groups maintained their traditional religion until the late twentieth century.

Their cult of incense burners, based on the veneration of Maya ruins and funerary caves and the deities these effigy censers represented, remained free of any Christian influence. Some ceremonies were vestiges of more complex rituals believed to date back to pre-Columbian times. In this volume, Didier Boremanse explores Lacandon beliefs and traditions he observed during his fieldwork over four decades.

Throughout the book Boremanse makes Lacandon values and worldviews accessible to readers from western cultures. Rituals are described and explained with extracts of the celebrants’ prayers that were taperecorded, transcribed, and translated. Other elements of religious oral tradition are included, including incantations, chants, and the myths and beliefs that sustain the rites. Most of the myths retold in this book have never been published in English. Photographs show rites that are no longer performed and shrines that no longer exist.

Didier Boremanse received his PhD in social anthropology at the University of Oxford. From 1979 until 2006 he taught anthropology and sociology at the Universidad del Valle de Guatemala, and from 2007 until 2013 he taught at the Fundación Eduard Seler of San Luis Potosí, Mexico. He is now an independent researcher.

It also complements the author’s previous published research and provides a synthesis of all work done on Lacandon myth and ritual.”

—Charles Andrew Hofling, author of the Lacandon Maya-Spanish-English Dictionary

"The detailed cultural information and explanations make this book so important and so different from similar works on Maya myths and folktales. The author’s knowledge of Lacandon culture and his insights on their myths and religion are truly admirable. His descriptions and analyses are nuanced and complete.”

David L. Bigler on the Mormons and the West

A Mormon Mother An Autobiography

Annie Clark Tanner

Confessions of a Revisionist Historian covers the issues and events Bigler considers central to understanding Utah’s colorful history: Millennialism, the march of the Mormon Battalion, the California Gold Rush, the Mormon Kingdom of God, Brigham Young’s Indian policy and the Fort Limhi mission to Oregon Territory, the 1856 Reformation and the origins of the Utah War of 1857, and the conflict’s most controversial acts of violence, the Mountain Meadows Massacre and the Aiken party murders.

This work stands as an enduring tribute to a gifted chronicler’s ability to examine the facts, step outside the box of the venerated interpretation, and evaluate the evidence in a new way.

Most impressive in this volume is its objectivity—possibly the most objective in all of Mormon literature. Annie Clark Tanner, though influenced by the period of time in which she was living, confronts her problems with a remarkable understanding and wisdom. She was an interesting woman, and her story provides a personal view of one aspect of Mormon history that has not been well documented until now.

Annie Clark Tanner was born September 24, 1864, in Farmington, Utah. She wrote this autobiography for her family in 1941, the last year of her life.

She was a woman whose satisfaction came in accomplishing what she believed to be her duty. She saw life through, with misgivings about herself, but with sympathetic understanding and compassion for others.

By turns humorous, sympathetic, bitter, ironic, and stinging, Goodell’s letters open a new window on the dedicated frontier theocracy that believed it was destined to sweep to world dominion.

They also reflect the militant attitude of the young millennial movement toward the American republic during its transition from the provisional State of Deseret, an independent nation-state created by Brigham Young in 1849, to a territory of the United States with the unwanted name of Utah.

Prize-winning historian David L. Bigler tells Goodell’s story as a vivid chapter in Western history. What emerges provides a new perspective on one of America’s most remarkable millennial movements and its inevitable conflict with the young republic in which it was born.

The Archaic Southwest Foragers in an Arid Land

Edited by Bradley J. Vierra

A

lthough humans in the Southwest were hunter-gatherers for about 85 percent of their history, the majority of the archaeological research in the region has focused on the Formative period. In recent years, however, the amount of data on the Archaic period has grown exponentially due to the magnitude of cultural resource management projects in this region. This is the first volume to synthesize this new data. The book begins with a history of the Archaic in the Four Corners region, followed by a compilation and interpretation of paleoenvironmental data gathered in the American Southwest.

The next twelve chapters, each written by a regional expert, provide a variety of current research perspectives. The final two chapters present broad syntheses of the Southwest: the first addresses the initial spread of maize cultivation and the second considers present and future research directions. The reader will be astounded by the amount of research that has been conducted and how all this information can be woven together to form a long-term picture of hunter-gatherer life.

A Kennecott Story

Three Mines, Four Men, and One Hundred Years, 1887–1997 Charles Caldwell Hawley

A

s it traces the story of the three copper mines, this narrative follows four mining engineers—Stephen Birch, Daniel Cowan Jackling, William Burford Braden, and E. Toppan Stannard. While Jackling developed economies of scale for massive open-pit mining in Utah, Braden went underground in Chile for a caving operation of unprecedented scale. Meanwhile, Birch and Stannard overcame the extreme challenges of mining rich ore in the difficult climate of Alaska and transporting it to market. The Guggenheims, who brought these three operations together, provided the funding without which the infrastructure necessary for the mining operations might not have been built.

As a geologist with first-hand knowledge of mining, author Charles Hawley aptly describes the technology behind the Kennecott story and places Kennecott and the copper industry within their historical context. He also allows the reader to consider the controversial aspects of mineral discovery and sustainability.

FEATURED BACKLIST

These essays explore the historical and cultural complexities of this narrative from a decolonizing perspective. They cover the historical construction of the “Lamanite,” settler colonialism and the Book of Mormon, and connections between the Seneca leader Handsome Lake and Joseph Smith. Authors also address tribal identities of American Indian Mormons, Navajo and Mormon participation at the dedication of Glen Canyon Dam, the impact of Mormon Polynesian missionaries in Diné Bikéyah, the ISPP, and other topics. With the aim of avoiding familiar narrative patterns of settler colonialism, contributors seek to make American Indians the subjects rather than the objects of discussion in relation to Mormons, presenting new ways to explore and reframe these relationships.

Gay Rights and the Mormon Church

Gregory Prince draws from over 50,000 pages of public records, private documents, and interview transcripts to capture the past half-century of the Mormon Church’s attitudes on homosexuality. Initially that involved only its own members, but with its entry into the Hawaiian political arena, the church signaled an intent to shape the outcome of the marriage equality battle. In 2015, when the Supreme Court made marriage equality the law of the land, the Mormon Church turned its attention inward, declaring same-sex couples “apostates” and denying their children access to key Mormon rites of passage, including the blessing (christening) of infants and the baptism of children.

Frontier Religion

Feed My Sheep

Alone on the Colorado

Konden Smith Hansen

Colleen Whitley

At the 1893 Columbian Exposition in Chicago, Mormons were deliberately excluded from one of the main attractions, the Parliament of Religions. However with a unique history intimately tied to the frontier, Mormonism slowly began to be seen less as something outside America, and more as a faith closely associated with the country’s most important principles. In Frontier Religion Konden Smith Hansen examines the dramatic influence these perceptions of the frontier had on Mormonism and other religions in America. Endeavoring to better understand the sway of the frontier on religion in the United States, this book follows several Mormon-American conflicts, from the Utah War and the antipolygamy crusades to the Reed Smoot hearings.

Alberta Henry (1920–2005) was born in a sharecropper’s shack in segregated Louisiana before moving with her family to Kansas, where she grew up in a climate of hardship and hostile racial bigotry that forced second-class citizenship on African Americans.

Henry endured intolerance by leaning on her faith and her commitment to a cause that she believed God had called her to follow. When she came to Utah in 1949 Henry committed herself to helping all races, religions, and ethnic groups coexist in appreciation of each other. Henry was a member or officer of more than forty civic organizations and served for twelve years as president of the Salt Lake City branch of the NAACP, where she lobbied for civil rights, education, and justice. Colleen Whitley provides expert and personal context to Henry's speeches, writing, and interviews.

This volume presents the multiyear archaeological investigations of Cerro Juanaqueña and related sites in northwestern Chihuahua, Mexico. These remarkable terraced hilltop settlements represent a series of watershed developments, including substantial dependence on agriculture and early experiments with village living, fortified settlements, collective labor, and communal architecture. The authors present innovative analyses of plant and animal remains, ground stone, chipped stone, and landscape evolution.

Through comparisons with a global cross-cultural probe of hilltop sites and a detailed examination of the features and artifacts of Cerro Juanaqueña, Hard and Roney argue that these cerros de trincheras sites are the earliest fortified defensive sites in the region.
