Elder Northfield's Home: or, Sacrificed on the Mormon Altar - Legacies of Nineteenth-Century American Women Writers
A. Jennie Bartlett
The practice of plural marriage, commonly known as polygamy, stirred intense controversy in postbellum America until 1890, when the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints first officially abolished the practice. Elder Northfield’s Home, published in 1882, is both a staunchly anti-polygamy novel and a call for the sentimental repatriation of polygamy’s victims.
