Minstrels, troubadours—the story tellers of old—stirred the hearts of men and moved them to action as they retold the sagas of valor and devotion of ancient heroes. Gathered here are stirring stories, sagas of faith and devotion, associated with the careers of twenty-two heroic figures of our day. From careers like these we gain encouragement and strength which drive away fear and doubt. Frustrations and defeats become the challenges which beckon us to try again in the spirit which is sustained and made ready to enjoy ultimate victory. From these we learn fortitude in the face of adversity and gratitude to Divine Providence for the generous rewards of faithfulness. Though several of the stories included in “Faith of Our Pioneer Fathers” are familiar in other settings, some are available for the first time.

American Pioneers & Patriots will allow your 3rd and 4th grade students to explore America's past through the fictional accounts of typical pioneer families. Young patriots of today will gain an appreciation of the courage it took to build this great nation of ours!

In the 1850s, Jean Rio, a deeply spiritual widow, was moved by the promises of Mormon missionaries and set out from England for Utah. Traveling across the Atlantic by steamer, up the Mississippi by riverboat, and westward by wagon, Rio kept a detailed diary of her extraordinary journey.In Faith and Betrayal, Sally Denton, an award-winning journalist and Rio’s great-great-granddaughter, uses the long-lost diary to re-create Rio’s experience. While she marvels at the great natural beauty of Utah, Rio’s enthusiasm for her new life turns to disillusionment over Mormon polygamy and violence against nonbelievers, as well as the harshness of frontier life. She sets out for California, where she finds a new religion and the freedom she longed for. Unusually intimate and full of vivid detail, this is an absorbing story of a quintessential American pioneer.
