Default Curious Delivery Tonight

I live near Salt Lake City Utah and we get hit with many interesting things based on location. Tonight I was walking past my front door and saw a vehicle parked in front of my house. I paused as a saw a middle aged woman get out with some baggies with a small book inside and she was approaching my front door. I took it to be someone delivering a new phone book like the small ones ppl keep in their car. I took a second look as I saw that another woman was sitting in the vehicle still but then went about my business. A short time later my daughter walked through the front door calling to me that she had a book for me that was left at the front door. She handed me the baggie that I had seen the woman carrying and said "Mom is there something we need to talk about". The book is called His Favorite Wife Trapped in Polygamy. This is no small book (434 pages) and I wonder why they have chosen my street to deliver these books to0...

Has anyone heard of this book? I did a google search and came up with a website. Did anyone else get this book delivered tonight?

Weird. I live up in Perry, but haven't heard or seen anything like that up here.

This certainly seems like a timely topic.

I just looked through the book starting from the back, so typical of me. LOL

There are some really nice color photos in the back and stuffed in to the front was a note.

This book is a gift to you!

Hello! I’m Susan Ray Schmidt, author of

His Favorite Wife:
Trapped in Polygamy

Word of mouth has generated most of my book sales. I’m hoping you or a friend will read it, enjoy it, and recommend it to a friend.


The woman I saw delivering the book last night was indeed the author Susan Ray Schmidt.

Beside killing branches [paper] from a tree, what purpose does it serve for that church being ignorant of LDS facts?
