Idaho's Malad Valley: A History

A good, bad and ugly history of a small Idaho Welsh settlement. The frontier between Mormon and Gentile, Saint and sinner. A place once advertised where a woman could shoot her husband and never spend a day in jail.The Presbyterian tolled for an "innocent" young Michael Murphy, the first man legally hanged in Idaho. Charles Fremont looked from Malad towards Great Salt Lake. They almost drowned exploring from a rubber boat.
