Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from My People of the Plains The experience herein related took place during the eleven years in which the author had the great privilege of ministering as a bishop to the warm-hearted and generous pioneers of the Rocky Mountain region embraced in the territory now included in the states of Wyoming and Idaho. During that time, he had the happiness of knowing the people as they lived in the mining-camp, on the ranch, in the excitement of the round-up, as they followed their herds of sheep, or indulged in the recreation of hunting big game in the forests or sage-chicken on the plains, or as they beguiled the happy hours with rod and line in that angler´s paradise. A more kindly hospitality no bishop ever received, and, as he recalls those years after the lapse of time, they are as vivid as the memory of yesterday´s events. It has been a positive delight and refreshment, in the midst of the busy life of an Eastern bishop, to live over again the scenes so fondly cherished, and to summon before him the familiar faces of the friends whom he then learned to honor and to love.
