| Summary | "An Englishwoman in Utah: The Story of a Life's Experience in Mormonism" by Stenhouse is an autobiography written in the late 19th century. The book recounts the author's life experiences, particularly her journey into and experiences with Mormonism, including her early life in England and eventual migration to Utah. The narrative highlights the complexities of life within the Mormon faith, notably focusing on themes of women’s rights, polygamy, and personal sacrifice. The opening of the autobiography sets the stage for Stenhouse’s journey, beginning with her reflections on her early life in Jersey, her religious upbringing, and her introduction to Mormonism through her family’s conversion. As Stenhouse grapples with her new identity as a convert, she describes the cultural and emotional conflicts that arise from her dedication to her faith, the pressure to conform, and her eventual marriage to a Mormon elder. The beginning also foreshadows the challenges she will face as she confronts the oppressive aspects of polygamy and the societal expectations of women within the church, inviting readers to anticipate a deep exploration of faith and feminism intertwined with personal narrative.
