Books like The polygamist's daughter by Anna LeBaron


In this intimate memoir, Anna LeBaron offers a first‑hand account of growing up as the daughter of Ervil LeBaron, a notorious polygamist who was also convicted of murder. Constantly evading the FBI, Anna and her siblings endured a life of hardship—facing starvation, fear, and perpetual uncertainty. Despite living with many family members, Anna felt a deep sense of isolation, questioning whether she would ever find a place where she truly belonged. Through candid recollections of her family's complex faith, the influence of the Church of the Firstborn of the Fulness of Times, and the broader context of Mormon polygamy in the United States and Mexico, she explores the enduring impact of her upbringing and the struggle for identity beyond her infamous heritage.
