It would be hard to give this book less than four stars, it's a well written autobiography. Of the books I have read about the FLDS this is one of the best. Musser manages to walk the line of information delivery and being compelling without launching into pity. Unlike under a banner of heaven this book doesn't touch on Mormonism except to illustrate the difference between LDS and FLDS, it also doesn't draw any conclusions about the faith, rather it rests solely on the condemnation of warren jeffs and his father Roulon. A good read for anyone interested in the trial or the subject. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
A gripping account of Rebecca Musser's struggle to escape the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints led by Rulon Jeffs and his son, Warren, and her subsequent decision to take the witness stand against the new prophet of the FLDS in order to protect her little sisters and other young girls from being forced to marry at shockingly young ages.

I feel for many of the people left in this environment. Hopefully one day some of them will have the opportunity to see it from the other side. In the meantime would someone PLEASE remove all outside access to the leaders of this group. It will only help in the long run. ( )
