Utah and the American Civil War
When Fort Sumter was attacked in April 1861, hundreds of soldiers were stationed at the U.S. Army’s Camp Floyd, forty miles southwest of Salt Lake City. The camp, established in June 1858, was the nation’s largest military post. Utah and the American Civil War presents a wealth of primary sources pertaining to the territory’s participation in the Civil War—material that until now has mostly been scattered, incomplete, or difficult to locate. Organized and annotated for easy use, this rich mix of military orders, dispatches, letters, circulars, battle and skirmish reports, telegraph messages, command lists, and other correspondence shows how Utah’s wartime experience was shaped by a...

Latter-Day Saints in Washington, DC
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has an important history in Washington, DC. With the exception of cities where the Church has been headquartered, it can be argued that no American city has had more influence on the history of the Church than the nation's capital. This volume takes a fresh look at the history, people, and places in Washington, DC, that have affected the Church. Beginning with Joseph Smith's earliest interactions with the federal government in the 1830s, the Church's progress has been shaped by leaders and members interacting in Washington. In 2019, faculty from the Department of Church History and Doctrine at Brigham Young University traveled to Washington to study that history. This volume is filled with their essays on many of the topics they explored. Latter-day Saints in Washington, DC helps readers appreciate the sometimes complicated yet cooperative relationship between the Church and the federal government. It chronicles many of the Saints and statesmen who have worked to bring the Church out of obscurity and onto a national and international stage.

Anderman have invited an international group of scholars to write brief, empirically-supported articles that examine predictors of academic achievement across a variety of topics and domains. Rather than telling people what to do in their schools and classrooms, this guide simply provides the first-ever compendium of research that summarizes what is k...

In this much-anticipated sequel, Richard E. Turley Jr. and Barbara Jones Brown examine the aftermath of this horrific event, tracing the stories of perpetrators and survivors alike, showing how southern Utah leaders worked to silence participants and witnesses in an attempted cover up, and answering the question of what role, if any, Brigham Young played in the cover-up.
