It was recommended as a resource for those struggling to understand plural marriage and was praised for its use of original sources and perspectives of those who lived it.
"
When I first began my journey studying polygamy I was angry by what I saw as an injustice that God required such a difficult principle to be lived by these faithful, tried people but as I studied the personal writing stories and testimonies of polygamous accepting them on their own terms that's a lot what Kate just mentioned she says I found peace the practice could have never been sustained for a half century by compulsion manipulation or simple sexual desire those who set the foundation of the latter-day Saint faith were not too dimensional superheroes as they are sometimes portrayed but they were complex strong intelligent full-bodied kingdom builders who are willing to leave loved ones wealth comfort and native countries for what they believe to be true this same willingness drove them to accept polygamy a practice they accepted as a commandment of God instituted in their time for his unique purposes and I'll finish here I have since come to view polaral marriage as part of the latter-day Saint history to unapologetically own and to hold this one of the most valuable testaments of the faith in the history of the church of Jesus Christ of Viter-day Saints
it is a joy to know that we laid the foundation of a life to come while we lived in that plural marriage that we three and she's talking about the three women who loved each other more than sisters children of one mother love will go hand in hand together down through all eternity that knowledge that knowledge is worth more to me than gold and more than compensates for all the sorrow I have ever known
