Abstract: Brief abstract written by HRAF anthropologists who have done the subject indexing for the document
This is a study of the Mormon colonization of the Little
Colorado River Basin in northeastern Arizona. The author looks at the different settlements
that were established there and considers why some survived and were more successful than
others. The usual Mormon collective practice of sharing of resources through cooperatives
and joint enterprises did not necessarily guarantee success because of the small population
of some of the settlements and the severe ecological conditions of some regions. Rather, it
was specifically tithing and the connection to the wider economy and labor market that
provided the funds and flexibility for communities to pass through difficult
times.
