I am reading " Great Basin Kingdom" by Arrington.
B. Young's power was of a Biblical nature in 1850's and 60's Utah.
Does anyone have a good source for how Young would send out his "men" to buy up land, and then he would get a "revelation" to, BY GOD, send people from their Salt lake homes that they had just built and be forced to buy land in the new area from Brigham Young's land agents ?
As John D. Lee once said, " to disobey President Young was to sentence himself to death".
