The Enoch Train Pioneers (Paperback)

On September 26, 1856 the first two handcart companies arrived in the Salt Lake Valley. They began their journey in Liverpool, England arriving in America on the sailing ship Enoch Train. It was a rough journey and some of them didn't survive the ocean voyage. When they arrived in Boston they continued their journey by omnibus, train, and ferry before they started the journey by foot and handcart. These early pioneers had their faith to help carry them through their 1300 mile journey following paths set down by their predecessors. The Enoch Train Pioneers chronicles their footsteps through journals, logbooks, passenger lists and some historical fiction entries. The newly added Handcart Log follows the two handcart companies through a day to day timeline and lets us discover the highlights and low times these courageous saints endured. Robert O. Day again brings us a glimpse into the lives of these early trailblazers of the American west and Linda S. Day has provided us with many new paintings to enhance the work.
