Lesser-Known Stories Of The Willie & Martin Pioneers - Andrew Olsen & Jolene Allphin | 48

Andrew Olsen and Jolene Allphin co-wrote 'Follow Me to Zion: Stories from the Willie Handcart Pioneers'. Respectively, they wrote further books about these pioneers, in Andrew's book he says, 'although this story is one of the most frequently told of all Mormon pioneer accounts, it is also among the least understood.'
I wanted to speak to both of them about why they felt to write extensively about the Willie & Martin Handcart Pioneers, but also to find out why these stories aren't fully understood and to hear the lesser-known stories.
Some highlights from this episode include a key moment in the rescue that showed Brigham Young's prophetic mantle, what camp in Iowa would have been like, and some incredible, faith-inspiring stories of individuals.
