　　In the 1850s, Jean Rio, a deeply spiritual widow, was moved

by the promises of Mormon missionaries and set out from England for

Utah. Traveling across the Atlantic by steamer, up the Mississippi

by riverboat, and westward by wagon, Rio kept a detailed diary of

her extraordinary journey.In Faith and Betrayal, Sally

Denton, an award-winning journalist and Rio’s

great-great-granddaughter, uses the long-lost diary to re-create

Rio’s experience. While she marvels at the great natural beauty of

Utah, Rio’s enthusiasm for her new life turns to disillusionment

over Mormon polygamy and violence against nonbelievers, as well as

the harshness of frontier life. She sets out for California, where

she finds a new religion and the freedom she longed for. Unusually

intimate and full of vivid detail, this is an absorbing story of a

quintessential American pioneer.
