Description

In 1839, the Latter-day Saints were desperate refugees driven from their homes in the face of winter. Where could they go? Who would take them in? How would they survive? This full-length feature documentary tells the story of the bold and daring rescue of the citizens of Quincy, Illinois, as the tiny town took in overwhelming numbers of fleeing Mormons giving them food, clothing, shelter, and employment. It is one of the greatest stories of human compassion on a grand scale in American history. This DVD runs 64 minutes and is in 720p
