Clayton Roberta Flake Compiler Editor (1 results)

Soft cover. Condition: Fine. No Jacket. 1st Edition. 720 pp., six page index laid in. We believe this to be a RARE first edition copy. A fine, tight, unmarked typescript copy with taped reinforced spine as photographed. Self-published, privately printed in Mesa, Arizona in 1969, this is a monumental thirty-three year research effort, by the compiler/editor Roberta Flake Clayton (1877-1981). Comprised of compelling, and historical biographies of Mormon women pioneers in the Arizona territory. These are the life stories of Mormon girls, young women, mothers, and grandmothers who traveled to Arizona by covered wagon and by train. Fascinating reading, rarely offered.
