In my Fathers House – A memoir of Polygamy

By Dorothy Allred Solomon

This book is a groundbreaking memoir exploring polygamy, not with outrage but with honesty and grace.  Dorothy Allred Solomon is the 28th of 48 children, descended from five generations of Mormon polygamy, Solomon evokes the intensity and dedication that bound her family ‘living the principle’.  She also traces the events that led up to her fathers assassination in 1977, that rocked Utah.  An interesting book to open our eyes to people who are often looked upon as outlaws and struggle for our understanding.
