An outstanding ethnographic biography of a fascinating women,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Mormon Healer Folk Poet: Mary Susannah Fowler's Life of 'Unselfish Usefulness' (Paperback)
Mary Susannah Sumner Fackrell Fowler (1862-1920) lived in the village of Orderville, Utah. She married Henry Ammon Fowler in 1880 and moved in 1888 to Huntington, Utah. They had eight children, and Henry took a second wife, becoming a Mormon polygamist. Mary was not well know outside her community, but she led a remarkable life of selfless service. With Mormon Healer And Folk Poet: Mary Susannah Fowler's Life Of "Unselfish Usefulness", folklorist Margaret Brady presents a fascinating and informative biography constructed through Mary's poetry, diary, essays, her husband's journals, a grandson's biography of her, records of organizations in which she was active, and oral narratives passed down through her descendants. Mormon Healer And Folk Poet is an outstanding ethnographic biography of a fascinating women and her Mormon heritage.
