AbstractBrief abstract written by HRAF anthropologists who have done the subject indexing for the document
There are remarkably few specifics on the practice of midwifery among the Mormons in this source. Instead it consists of life histories for fourteen midwives spanning nearly a century, providing something of an account of life in early Utah. The author's research methods and material included interviews, correspondence, diaries and journals, and archival research.
