It is a memoir that describes Cannon's experiences as a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church) and a Republican Party politician in Utah, and his eventual disillusionment with both organizations.
The book details Cannon's upbringing in a prominent LDS family, his career as a newspaper editor, and his election to the United States Senate as a member of the Republican Party. It also delves into the political and social climate of Utah during the early 20th century, including the ongoing conflict between the LDS Church and the federal government over issues such as polygamy and the church's control over the state's political and economic systems.
Cannon's eventual break with the LDS Church is a major theme of the book, and he is critical of the church's leadership and practices, particularly its efforts to control the political and economic life of Utah. The book is seen as an important historical document for understanding the political and social dynamics of Utah and the LDS Church during this period.
