Wife No. 19 is a memoir written by Ann Eliza Young, a woman who was married to Brigham Young, the second president of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The book details her life as a polygamous wife and her eventual decision to leave the marriage and speak out against the practice of polygamy. Ann Eliza Young describes her upbringing in a Mormon family, her marriage to Brigham Young at the age of 24, and her life as one of his many wives. She discusses the challenges of living in a polygamous household, including jealousy, competition, and lack of emotional support. She also describes the physical and emotional abuse she suffered at the hands of her husband.As the book progresses, Ann Eliza Young becomes increasingly disillusioned with polygamy and the Mormon church.

She also advocates for women's rights and the abolition of polygamy.Wife No. 19 provides a rare firsthand account of life as a polygamous wife in the 19th century.
