Wasatch Academy

This book reads like a novel even though it is the true history of an independent boarding school in the heart of Mormon Utah. The school was founded by a Presbyterian minister, Duncan J. McMillan, in 1875. Dr. McMillan was personally responsible for eight private schools in Utah between 1875 and 1880. His work was continued by the Presbyterian Board of National Missions after 1875 until organized public education was authorized in the State of Utah in 1892.
