Wife No. 19 is the compelling, informative and emotionally fraught
biography of Ann Eliza Young, a member and wife within the Mormon
church during the 19th century. Young sets out to chronicle a
lengthy expos of the various misdeeds she witnessed or was
personally part of. She describes the character of the founder and
prophet of the Mormon Church, Joseph Smith, in the context of his
interpersonal relationships. The gradual emergence of polygamy, and
its uptake among the higher ranking members of the church, is
detailed. Although the title highlights the polygamous
relationships for which Mormonism gained notoriety, this book does
not shy away from the other scandals or controversies. For example;
the means via which Brigham Young dishonestly relieved his
followers of their money, possessions and cattle via a number of
schemes, and the frequent use of the local Native American
populations as scapegoats.
