Description

Garden City: Doubleday, 1981. First edition. 406pp. Octavo [21.5cm]. 1/4 maroon cloth, over brown boards. Title stamped in gilt on spine; author's gilt stamped facsimile signature on front board. Spine ends mildly bumped. Textblock has begun to lift from head of spine. In a dust jacket with a faded spine and a handful of closed tears. A Mormon woman's account of her support of the Equal Rights Amendment, and her subsequent excommunication from the mainstream LDS church. Sonia Johnson was raised in Southern Idaho, and her roots in the church went back five generations. Though this title primarily tackles more contemporary gender based controversies within Mormonism, Johnson does share her thoughts on polygamy. An interesting look at one woman's experience during a time of radical social progress within the United States - and the unenthusiastic responses of LDS leadership.
