In 1846, following the death of Joseph Smith, Brigham Young--the newly called and sustained Prophet--began what has termed "the Mormon Exodus" from Nauvoo, Illinois to The Great Salt Lake. This was an important chapter in Mormon history and Brigham Young's leadership. This film was inspired by the album "Saints and Pioneers" by Rob Gardner and is available on www.spiremusic.org.
