description: Sir Richard Francis Burton was perhaps the most colorful British explorer of the 19th century. In 1860 he left England and his fiance to explore the American West and visit the Mormons. His descriptions of the land and people are better than photographs. Lively, detailed, and highly entertaining, The City of the Saints is a wonderful report.
