The story of Joseph Smith's last journey to Carthage and the horse that carried him. A deeply moving ride through Mormon history. Tells the story of the martyrdom from the viewpoint of absolute innocence. One of the lowliest figures in Mormon history, the black stallion named Old Charlie was Joseph Smith's favorite riding horse. With Joseph and Emma from the early 1830's in Kirtland through the martyrdom in the Carthage Jail on June 27, 1844, Charlie was an eyewitness to early Church history. Last Ride to Carthage is an unforgettable ride through the backdrop of sweeping historical events. WHAT READERS HAVE TO SAY ABOUT LAST RIDE TO CARTHAGE It captured my imagination from the beginning. The words take you through Mormon history in a way history books cannot. Incredibly moving. Imaginative-heartwarming-heartbreaking. PRAISE FOR DANIEL BAY GIBBONS . . . destined to be a great, if not THE great writer of the restoration. G.G. Vandagriff, Whitney-award winning author of The Last Waltz and Exile
