Well Researched Book
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
It is wonderful to see the amount of research that Marian Wells put into this book. I lived in Utah for many years and have done extensive research into Joseph Smith, Brigham Young, and the mormon religion and, have found, like all of history, that there are those on both sides who feel strongly about 'the prophet' Joseph Smith. Wells approaches this controversy from the Christian (non-mormon) standpoint so be aware of this when you read it. She has studied the early mormon church and Joseph Smith thoroughly and, while it won't sit well with intensely devoted mormons, it gives good insight to others interested in the subject. A possibly controversial but super book.
