In this remarkable and deeply felt book, Virginia Kerns uncovers the singular and forgotten life of a young Indian woman, who was captured in 1847 in what was then Mexican territory. Sold to a settler, a son-in-law of Brigham Young, the woman spent the next thirty years as a servant to Young’s family. Sally, as they called her, lived in the shadows, largely unseen. She was later remembered as a “wild” woman made “tame”, who happily shed her past to enter a new and better life in civilization.

Drawing from a broad range of primary sources, Kerns retrieves Sally from obscurity and reconstructs her complex life before, during, and after captivity. This true story from the American past resonates deeply in the current moment, attentive as it is to killing epidemics and racial injustices. In telling Sally’s story, Kerns presents a new narrative of the American West.

Until I read SALLY IN THREE WORLDS, I had limited information about the migration of Brigham Young and 148 members of the LDS (Mormon) church. Research conducted over 7 years by Virginia Kerns revealed minute daily details previously unpublished. The minute details allowed me to emotionally experience the hardships of the journey. Separately, the brutal details of Sally”s capture, trade and subjugation opened my mind to Sally’s physical abuse and her state of mind. Kerns offers graphic insight into how Sally must have viewed cultural dissimilarity in two worlds. You must read the book to learn of Sally’s third world.

This book is a good example of Mormon obliteration of culture. I assume not intended as such but nonetheless it's there. Recommend for anyone who is curious about Native American and Mormon interactions.

Extremely informative
