On this episode we talk to Noel Carmack, co-editor with Charles M. Hatch of the new two-volume work to be released in early November, Useful to the Church and Kingdom: The Journals of James H. Martineau, Pioneer and Patriarch, 1850-1918. Martineau converted to Mormonism in 1850 and spent his life as a surveyor, mapmaker, civil engineer, and leader in the Utah Territorial Militia. He witnessed and took part in several events in the territory and worked on the Union Pacific Railroad. His journal spans over sixty-eight years and is one of the most important diaries kept in nineteenth-century Utah, and the annotation provided by the editors is superb.
