In and About Salt Lake City
About this book
"In and About Salt Lake City" is a vintage account of the history and people of Salt Lake City by William A. Morton. Salt Lake City is the capital and the most populous municipality of the U.S. state of Utah. Morton provides a historical account of the area, an important and spiritual home of the Mormon religion, as well as some of the fundamental beliefs of Mormons. This volume is highly recommended for those with an interest in Mormonism and it's history, and it would make for a fantastic addition to allied collections. Contents include: "A Sketch of Utah and Mormonism", "A Typical Mormon Hymn", "What the Mormon's Believe", "Articles of Faith", "Resources and Attractions of Utah", "Climate as a Resource", "Agriculture", "Grain", "Grasses", "The Orchards of Utah", etc. Many vintage books like this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now complete with the original text and artwork for the enjoyment of readers now and for years to come.
