Description

This 7" by 8", sixty-nine page book,
ROBERT GARDNER, Jr.
, is a second generation record of the life of
Robert Gardner Jr.
(1819-1906), who became a
UTAH PIONEER
in 1847. Originally "Written by himself at St. George, Utah,  January 7, 1884", the text in this edition was copied from the previous book and compiled from the diaries and personal writings of Robert Gardner, Jr., by his great grandson in 1934. Only two hundred copies of this book were printed July 31, 1973.
The book's sections are titled:
History Of Robert Gardner Jr.
;
Hand Cart Mission Diary 1857-1858
;
Patriarchal Blessing Given On His
First Trip To Nauvoo
by Wm. Smith; and
Progenitors & Descendants Of Robert Gardner, Jr
.  This history of the child immigrant from Scotland to Canada, who became the LDS Bishop of St. George, Utah and Pioneer Settler of Pine Valley, Utah, (with some notations of a previous owner in the back,) shows some wear to the card stock cover from age and storage. A rare addition to any library.
