Wife No
Author: Ann Eliza Young
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780857062727
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 472
Book Description
A campaigner for women's rights This is a remarkable and controversial book by any standards. The verdict is still out on whether its author Ann Eliza Young (formerly Webb) presented her case with complete impartiality, but certainly its contents are sufficiently detailed to reveal shocking and extraordinary details of her experiences during her time as a pluralist wife of Brigham Young of the Latter-Day Saints. A child of Mormon parents, Ann entered into her marriage with Young when he was 67 years old and she was 24, a divorcee and the mother of two children. Her writings on her experiences of the Mormon lifestyle in Utah make gripping reading and her book is filled with accounts of privation, cruelty and violence. She filed for divorce from Brigham Young in 1873 and went on to become an outspoken advocate for the rights of women in 19th century America and an ardent and campaigning opponent of polygamous marriage. This book is her account of her life as one of Young's wives and on its original publication propelled Ann into the public arena and became a best seller of its day. It still makes compelling reading. Available in softcover and hardcover for collectors.

Wife No 19, Or, the Story of a Life in Bondage
Author: Ann Eliza Young
Publisher: Martino Fine Books
ISBN: 9781578989904
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 628
Book Description
2010 Reprint of 1876 Illustrated edition. This is the true facsimile of the rare original edition with illustrations, not a OCR based reprint. Ann Eliza Young (September 13, 1844-1925), also known as Ann Eliza Webb Dee Young Denning, was one of Brigham Young's fifty-five wives and later a critic of polygamy. She spoke out against the suppression of women and was an advocate for women's rights during the 19th century. In 1876, she published an autobiography entitled Wife No. 19. In it she wrote that she had "a desire to impress upon the world what Mormonism really is; to show the pitiable condition of its women, held in a system of bondage that is more cruel than African slavery ever was, since it claims to hold body and soul alike." This is her account of the "horrors of polygamy and masonry."
