About the Book:Quietly heroic and deeply devout, Julia Abegg Call was the fourth wife in a polygamous marriage to Anson Bowen Call, Mormon Bishop of Colonia Dublan in revolutionary-era Mexico. Carolyn Davis offers an intimate look into a polygamous family that struggled to stay together amidst political turmoil in Mexico, and the growing intolerance toward polygamy in the United States. Julia became the mother of twelve children and confronted danger, poverty, prejudice, and personal tragedy as the Call family found themselves in the middle of warring parties during the Mexican Revolution, crossing paths with both Pancho Villa and General Pershing. Some Book Reviews:Sarah rated it & it was amazing!Her grandniece gave it to me to read. She said the only part the family didn't like was the first wife and her really didn't dislike one another as much as the author made out. Otherwise, the book was a well written biography of an amazing lady. Loved learning about polygamy and the Mexican revolution from the life of someone with a front-row seat. Jessica rated it & really liked it!I found this book to be truly inspiring and really helped me understand life in a polygamy family. Great read, extremely interesting, and highly recommended. Elli rated it & really liked it!This was an excellent book in many ways. The author had her storyteller close by and a way of picking up the personalities as well as the facts. And, no, I am not a mormon or a polygamist. The sensitivity in which how the group both grew and suffered was unusually fine. There were plenty of photos and of conversations with others. When you are being sought by people who want to kill all Americans in the area, you don't worry about polygamy laws! In fact the way they treated one another was noteworthy...even if at times it just was for the kids. And how they took in "their sister's" children or being left without a mother is noteworthy, too. And Anson Call sounded like a fine man to me, who tried to do what he felt he had to do for the sake of his family. It's a good book. Copyright © 2018-2021 TDM Inc.
