Wow... South Pass was so different than I had imagined. I always thought that it was in the mountains and what not and then when I actually saw the pass and how it was in such an open area I was astounded. I also really enjoyed the topics we discussed on the bus today. It is really refreshing to hear an expert give knowledge on topics that are usually very one sided or biased. I have also herd from outside sources that the book The Massacre at Mountain Meadows is worth the read and is very well done. I am interested to read it.
Speaking of reading I would love to know what books you all bought on this trip and what you think about them... and books you already have read or use in your lesson preparation or for the students or just for personal knowledge. There are just so many books out there and I don't seem to have the time to read them all so I would love to refine my search for useful books.
