The Fourth Wife by Carolyn O'bagy Davis
Quietly heroic and deeply devout, Julia Abegg Call was the fourth wife in a polygamous marriage to Anson Bowen Call, Mormon Bishop of Colonia Dublan in revolutionary-era Mexico. Carolyn Davis offers an intimate look into a polygamous family that struggled to stay together amidst political turmoil in Mexico, and the growing intolerance toward polygamy in the United States. Julia became the mother of twelve children and confronted danger, poverty, prejudice, and personal tragedy as the Call family found themselves in the middle of warring parties during the Mexican Revolution, crossing paths with both Pancho Villa and General Pershing.Carolyn O'Bagy Davis has been writing about the American Southwest for 30 years and is a descendent of Utah pioneers. Davis is a Western history historian who has written 14 books. Davis received material from Cameron residents and Western history buffs for this centennial book.
