Star Valley Wyoming, 1889. Blizzards, starvation, outlaws, courage, initiative, faith, triumph. Strange allies: Latter-day Saints (Mormons) seeking refuge from a law prohibiting plural marriage; Matt Warner and Tom McCarty seeking refuge from another law prohibiting bank robbery. Extreme conditions: Blinding blizzards; loss of herds and crops; impossible to reach nearby towns for supplies. A native of Star Valley tells a gripping tale of overcoming hardship through initiative and cooperation among seemingly incompatible bedfellows. When the characters speak in the old dialects, they seem to come to life. Some of these real-life characters have descendants still living in Afton and other towns of Star Valley. One of them recently became well-known as a world-champion wrestler.
