I have been reading stories from the Martin Handcart company from Tell My Story, Too by Jolene S. Allphin. On her webpage, there are many beautiful pieces of fine art which also recap stories of many faithful pioneers with cool stories. This is a link to the impressive story of Sarah Ann Haigh. http://www.tellmystorytoo.com/fine-arts/julie-rogers/not-the-end
