Description
"This manuscript reconstructs and interprets the life of 'Sally,' an Indian woman who was captured and enslaved in Utah in 1847. Her captors sold her to a settler who had just arrived in the Salt Lake Valley and she ended up in his father-in-law's house. Sally served as the longtime servant and cook in Brigham Young's household, living and working in the Lion House and Beehive House for over twenty years. Kerns has drawn on a broad range of ethnographic, linguistic, archival, and other documentary evidence from primary sources to present the life of this Native woman." -- Provided by publisher.
