    About this ebook

    Read about the settlement of Utah through the words of Mormon Pioneer, Joseph Holbrook, as written in his journal. Also included are stories and commentary on The Next Generation who went into Star Valley, Wyoming, to settle when outlaws infested that region. Among the most interesting of these was Butch Cassidy. Fresh insights into Cassidys life and why he became an outlaw are revealed side by side with the life sketches of Anson Vasco Call II, the first mayor of Afton, Wyoming, and other stories of the settlement of the area. Shown here is the LDS tabernacle in Bountiful, Utah, (top) that Joseph Holbrook helped build and the LDS tabernacle in Star Valley, Wyoming, (bottom) that his grandson, Anson Vasco Call II. helped erect. Joseph Holbrooks legacy is far-reaching and extensive and includes the accomplishments of his many descendants.

    Pamela Call Johnson

    Terry and Pamela Johnson are an active, involved, Mormon couple who have strong faith in the goodness of God. The implementation of this faith was challenged with the suicide of their son but was ultimately strengthened as they searched deeply into their hearts and religion for meaning. Pamela was taught from a young age the importance of raising children right 'for when they were old they would not depart from it' and, 'as a twig is bent, so it will grow.' She had a firm belief children became what they are taught. Terry was raised in a small, not so close, family who had little regard for organized Christian faith. His family was not enthusiastic when Terry became an enthusiastic convert of the LDS Church. Terry and Pam were energetic in seeing their children grew 'straight.' However, Terry and Pamela discovered that sometimes the unexpected changes the expected outcome. The lessons they learned through their struggle when their oldest son became a prodigal and then killed himself taught them great lessons and gave them greater compassion for all God's children in any circumstances, anywhere. This is their story.
