Through Deepening Trials is the story of Sarah Ann Franks and her sweetheart, George Padley. It is a work of fiction but the setting is true, the characters are real, the history is authentic. Many names of the people involved have been kept intact, as well as the integrity of the times, events and places.
Through Deepening Trials is a love story, a tale of courage, sadness, of human emotion, suffering and of death. A must-read for the avid reader or occasional reader. [from Deseret Book web site]
