The Christian Century magazine of May 5, 2009, has an article titled “Best Sellers” that names top religion titles by publisher. Oxford University Press lists Massacre at Mountain Meadows as its number one bestseller in this field.
“A vivid, gripping narrative of one of the most notorious mass murders in all American history, and a model for how historians should do their work. This account of a long-controversial horror is scrupulously researched, enriched with contemporary illustrations, and informed by the lessons of more recent atrocities.”
— Daniel Walker Howe , Pulitzer Prize-winning author of What Hath God Wrought: The Transformation of America, 1815–1848
