Book Description
At dawn, several hundred police and government officials closed in on a fundamentalist religious settlement in the southwest desert to serve warrants and rescue the children from bondage and immorality. That was in 1953 at the Mormon community in Short Creek, Arizona. Bradley (history, Brigham Young U.) gives an account of that raid and the two previous ones, in 1935 and 1944, with a sympathetic focus on the disruption of the community and the separation of the families. She also considers the legal issues around polygamy then and now. Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
