Description

About The Book: Forty Years Among the Indians is Daniel W. Jones's 1890 autobiography, recounting his experiences as a Mormon convert, pioneer, and missionary in the American West. The narrative describes his journey from a young, adventurous soldier in the Mexican-American War to a dedicated Latter-day Saint involved in the rescue of the 1856 handcart companies. Jones shares insights on his work with Native Americans and Mexicans, his efforts in translating The Book of Mormon into Spanish, and his role in establishing settlements like Mesa, Arizona. The book provides valuable historical perspectives on Western expansion and the early Mormon frontier experience.
