The author was raised in a family with 7 âmothersâ and a father who was the revered leader of a polygamous community. Not mainstream Mormon but devout fundamentalists â" part of an underground group of communities that continued to live their polygamous life style generations after it was outlawed by both the Mormon church and the state of Utah in 1890.
Ms Solomon had a happy childhood although it was filled with all the fears of having her parent's lifestyle discovered and exposing the entire family to harassment and the possible arrest of her father. She ultimately rejects polygamy for herself but this does not lessen her love for her very large family
The author does a wonderful job retelling the story of her life.
