Hole In The Rock: An Epic In The Colonization Of The Great American West is a historical non-fiction book written by David E. Miller. The book chronicles the story of a group of pioneers who attempted to settle in the San Juan County of Utah in the late 19th century. The pioneers, led by Mormon leader Dudley Leavitt, encountered numerous challenges and obstacles as they attempted to navigate the treacherous terrain of the region. The title of the book refers to a narrow and steep crevice that the pioneers had to carve through solid rock in order to create a passageway for their wagons and livestock. The book explores the motivations and struggles of the pioneers as they attempted to establish a new community in the face of immense adversity. Miller's book provides a detailed and engaging account of the history of the American West, focusing on the pioneering spirit and resilience of the settlers who sought to make a new life in this rugged and unforgiving landscape. The book is well-researched and includes a wealth of historical detail, including firsthand accounts from the pioneers themselves. Overall, Hole In The Rock: An Epic In The Colonization Of The Great American West is a compelling and informative read for anyone interested in the history of the American West, the Mormon migration, or the challenges of settling a new frontier.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
