Earlier companies arrive successfully in Salt Lake City, but for the Martin Company the trip proves disastrous.
The Martin Handcart Company, a zealous group of emigrants headed for Zion, is the last to leave on this 1,300-mile journey. In 1856, Mormon converts, encouraged by Brigham Young himself, and outfitted with two-wheeled handcarts, set out on foot from Iowa City to Salt Lake City, the promised land. In a novel based on true events, New York Times bestselling author Sandra Dallas delivers the story of four women-seeking the promise of salvation and prosperity in a new land-who come together on a harrowing journey.
