Cache Valley straddles the Utah/Idaho border. The format was challenging (so many footnotes should have been endnotes or incorporated into the main text; the first half of the book was narrative history & second half was mostly biographical appendices) but the information is priceless. I wish Simmonds had addressed the various religious communities's relations with & impact on the native Shoshone, whose land they occupied. A topic for another book I suppose.

Wonderful history of non-Mormons and ex-Mormons in early Cache Valley.
