Publisher Description: This scarce text details the complete history of the Latter-Day Saints, with particular emphasis given to the character of the extraordinary man, Joseph Smith. This text considers Joseph Smith's life from his humble birth in a tent to his want of education, his boldness, inexorable perseverance, defiance in the face of danger, and his ultimate overcoming of obstacles which culminated in his founding a new religion. A thoroughly interesting account, this text will appeal to historians, theologians, and those interested in the history of the sect. Henry Mayhew was a playwright, English social researcher, journalist, and reformation advocate. Originally published in 1857, this book is republished with a new biography of its author. |
