Non-Fiction Biography
Irene Spencer did as she felt God commanded in marrying
her brother-in-law Verlan LeBaron, becoming his second
wife. When the government raided the fundamentalist,
polygamous Mormon village of Short Creek, Arizona, Irene
and her family fled to Verlan's brothers' Mexican ranch.
They lived in squalor and desolate conditions in the
Mexican desert with Verlan's six brothers, one sister, and
numerous wives and children. Readers will be appalled and
astonished, but most amazingly, greatly inspired. Irene's
dramatic story reveals how far religion can be stretched
and abused and how one woman and her children found their
way out, into truth and redemption.
