JOHNSON: Warren Marshall Johnson, Forgotten Saint (Softcover)
by P T Reilly. 1971. 22p
"Warren Marshall Johnson, Forgotten Saint" explores the life and contributions of Warren Johnson, a pivotal yet overlooked figure in the early Mormon settlement of Arizona. The book details his adventurous journey from Boston in 1866, his establishment of Lee's Ferry as a vital crossing point on the Colorado River, and the various challenges he faced, including health crises and the rigors of pioneer life. Through his roles as a farmer, teacher, and church leader, Johnson significantly impacted his community, yet his legacy remains largely unrecognized compared to other prominent figures of the time.
