I became interested in this book after getting into the show Big Love on HBO. It talks about what goes on in the world of the real FLDS polygamists, most notably the people in Colorado City, AZ who are led by their prophet Warren Jeffs. Very interesting reading, especially if you are a fan of the HBO show. Roman Grant's compound on the show was based pretty closely on the Colorado City group.
