God's Brothel - The Extortion of Sex for Salvation in Contemporary Mormon and Christian Fundamentalist Polygamy and the Stories of 18 Women Who Escaped (Paperback)

A shocking indictment of polygamy, this book reveals gruesome facts about Bible-based polygamy, a growing phenomenon now counting 50,000 - 100,000 members in 30 U.S. states, Canada, and Mexico. Eighteen brave women who escaped from 10 of the 11 main polygamous groups as well as from independent families tell their horrifying stories, which include rape, incest, orgies, drugs and violence, making this form of polygamy more akin to sexual slavery than to any quaint religious or lifestyle choice.
