Dr. Allen C. Christensen, a BYU professor and descendant of the Seventh Handcart Company, offers a well-sourced history of this lesser-known trek, drawing on materials not widely available. The book provides extensive, footnoted background on Europe and Scandinavian converts before shifting into a clear chronological account of the journey and its challenges. While it includes some supplemental chapters that wander beyond the trek, it will be especially satisfying for handcart-history readers and Seventh Company descendants.
