John Taylor was the third president of the Mormon church. Legendary for his fierce defense of polygamy and slavery over a ten-year period, he defied the courts, Congress, and the U.S. government; evaded federal marshals; and directed the church from secret headquarters. He stood as perhaps the single greatest symbol of fifty-one violent years of Mormon frontier life. His death marked the end of the original pioneering era, in essence, the grand Mormon plan for an impossible ideal.
