Finished The Thunder.

What a roller coaster of a book. I marvel at the faith of the pioneers. Jedediah must have been a personality that commanded a lot of respect. i really don't know how I would have measured up during that time. I would be siding with him as he talked to the saints about cleaning up Zion and then I'd turn around and be so angry with Jedediah for butting into some of the everyday life things like bathing. I think that the saint needed to be brought to account for much, but if felt people had to measure up to his standards of Zion. Glad I live now.
