A perspective on how it was to be a Mormon wife (specifically, one of Brigham Young's wives) is available in a book "Wife no. 19" by Ann Eliza Young, self-described as "Brigham Young's apostate wife". Published in 1876, readable at [1]. It's been the focal point of quite a few spirited discussions between the Mormon members of my family and (non-Mormon) me.
