{"product_id":"red-water-9780385720694","title":"Red Water","description":"In 1857, at a place called Mountain Meadows in southern Utah, a band of Mormons and Indians massacred 120 emigrants. Twenty years later, the slaughter was blamed on one man named John D. Lee, previously a member of Brigham Young's inner circle. \u003cb\u003eRed Water\u003c\/b\u003e imagines Lee's extraordinary frontier life through the eyes of three of his nineteen wives. Emma is a vigorous and capable Englishwoman who loves her husband unconditionally. Ann, a bride at thirteen years old, is an independent adventurer. Rachel is exceedingly devout and married Lee to be with her sister, his first wife. These spirited women describe their struggle to survive Utah's punishing landscape and the poisonous rivalries within their polygamous family, led by a magnetic, industrious, and considerate husband, who was also unafraid of using his faith to justify desire and ambition.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJudith Freeman is the author of three novels-\u003cb\u003eThe Chinchilla Farm\u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003e, \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cb\u003eSet for Life\u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003e, \u003c\/i\u003eand \u003cb\u003eA Desert of Pure Feeling\u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003e-\u003c\/i\u003eand of \u003cb\u003eFamily Attractions\u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003e, \u003c\/i\u003ea collection of stories.
