The Witness Wore Red: The 19th Wife Who Brought Polygamous Cult Leaders to Justice by Rebecca Musser

5.0

---

This book challenges the perception of religious respect, universal humane rights, and the worth of the consent of those indoctrinated by religious truisms. Rebecca Musser and Bridget Cook set up to write a biography and ended up writing a chapter of cultural introspection, walking the fine line of respect for people with a different set of beliefs from our own, while being critical of perceived violations of human rights whose victims have sunk into deep denial.
