New church leader Brigham Young declares that the Saints must go west to find a place where they can worship in peace. Porter Rockwell becomes the lead scout for the great exodus to Utah Territory. The Saints build Salt Lake City and navigate tensions with local Native American tribes. Rockwell acts as a guide for U.S. Army troops and helps establish the Brigham Young\u2019s mail route through the territory. In 1857, Rockwell learns news of a major threat to the LDS church: President James Buchanan is sending 2,500 soldiers and a new governor to take over Utah Territory. The perceived invasion sets the stage for one of the darkest chapters in the history of the American West.\n\xa0\nJoin Black Barrel+ for ad-free episodes and bingeable seasons:\nblackbarrel.supportingcast.fm/join\n\xa0\nApple users join Black Barrel+ for ad-free episodes, bingeable seasons and bonus episodes.
