Typescript of John Nielsen's life history, probably recorded in or around 1885. The volume traces Nielsen's childhood experiences in Denmark, including prejudices faced by Mormon converts, and his family's plan to travel to the United States in 1866. It continues with notes on their voyage to New York, their travel by rail and boat to Florence, Nebraska, and their journey on foot to Salt Lake City. It concludes with reminiscences on Nielsen's life in Utah, including a grasshopper invasion in 1869.
