Reprint of the original, first published in 1882.

Excerpt from The Women of Mormonism: Or the Story of Polygamy as Told by the Victims Themselves With an earnest desire to have some part in the great work of redeeming the large, beautiful, and populous Territory of Utah from the tyrannical and degrading evil which holds it in its mighty grasp, and which is ruining the souls and bodies of thousands of men and women, the publisher sends forth this work. He is confident that it will impart information which will astonish its readers, and hopes it will exert no small influence in molding public opinion, and thus lead to an energetic demand upon Congress for right and efficient legislation, and direct the sympathies of the people to some practical end, in increasing the means of the various "redeeming agencies" that are operating in Utah and the adjacent territories. In order to give the work the greatest possible circulation, it will be sold only by subscription. Every effort has been made to have it thoroughly accurate and reliable, and to issue it in an attractive style. The illustrations are chiefly portraits of some of the most prominent persons who are working in various ways for the redemption of the inhabitants of Utah from the terrible bondage in which they are held, and have been engraved expressly for this work, at great expense.
