| Description | Howard A. Christy describes Mormon policy and Indian/White relations during the first five years of Mormon settlement in Utah; he argues that Brigham Young's comment, "It is cheaper to feed the Indians than to fight them" was the product of experience. Christy analyzes land rights and purchasing policy, Ute-Shoshoni relations, theft, trading, conflict and retaliation, etc. This item can be found at the following link: http://content.lib.utah.edu/u?/USHSArchPub,7265 |
