This impressive volume was the brainchild of a young convert, Frederick Piercy and Samuel Richards, who was the Liverpool Mission president at the time. They envisioned a travel guide for English converts who wanted to make the trek to the Salt Lake Valley.

A handsome facsimile reproduction of the very scarce 1855 original. Number 153 in an edition limited to 1,000 copies.
