"Reis in Utah en Arizona" by Albert Tissandier is a travel account written in the late 19th century. The book chronicles the author's explorations of the lesser-known regions of Utah and Arizona, particularly the lands inhabited by the Mormons. Tissandier provides insights into the geography, inhabitants, and unique landscapes he encounters during his journey. In this account, Tissandier details his travels through various settlements, including Cedar-City and Kanab, and describes the striking natural beauty of the region, including the colorful rock formations and vast desert landscapes. The narrative brings to life the experiences of traveling by train, horse, and wagon through rugged terrains while interacting with the local Mormon population and Native Americans. Along the way, Tissandier reflects on the lifestyle of the Mormons, their agricultural practices, and the challenges they face due to isolation and government scrutiny over their customs. Rich in vivid descriptions, the book offers readers a glimpse into a unique time and place, highlighting the contrasts between the wild landscapes and the communities that thrive within them.
