The Leah Shadow

By Harold K. Moon

Book Overview

Author: ?+ Harold Kay Moon Description:

"Leah was tender eyed, but Rachel was beautiful and well-favored. And Jacob loved Rachel . . . more than Leah." In the early days of the Mormon Church, sister-wives Catherine and Sheila must make peace with each other, seeking reconciliation in their love for their husband, John Glendrake. But plural marriage is just one of the many frontier challenges that John and his stubborn, beleaguered, and endearing wives must face. From Utah to Mexico, they must deal with fire, drought, disappointment, and heartbreak. Through it all, and despite separation in life and in death, their relationships grow and their devotions deepen. The Leah Shadow is a story of adventure, tenderness, human dignity, and, most of all, understanding, forgiveness, and love. Unquestionably, this novel is among the best and most satisfying treatments of plural marriage-or monogamous marriage, for that matter-that we have. . . . It is excellent reading and one of the best LDS novels I've enjoyed. -Richard Cracroft, a columnist for BYU Magazine ISBN: 1-55517-856-1, CATEGORY: LDS Fiction

So good you'll forget to leave it in the bathroom!

I LOVE this book. It has so many great stories and facts. I couldn't put it down once I started reading. The book is set up so you can read a little at a time or a lot. My copy never stayed in the bathroom!
