Just in time for Pioneer Day , on this episode of Mormonish Podcast, Landon gives an excellent presentation on the events surrounding the Willie and Martin Handcart Companies' tragic journey west.

This presentation was originally a The Good Book Club episode and we're excited to share this important discussion of these tragic events.For too long, the LDS church's narrative has hidden key details and created an inspiring narrative that doesn't reflect reality.

The discussion centers around the excellent book on this topic, "

Devil's Gate: Brigham Young and the Great Mormon Handcart Tragedy' by David Roberts
