America saw plural marriage as immoral, Joseph Smith saw it as a restoration of biblical practices, but the private writings of Nauvoo participants and other polygamy insiders tell a more complex and nuanced story. Brian Hales brings this story to life in his 3-volume "Joseph Smith's Polygamy." Volumes 1 and 2 give the most comprehensive history of the early practice of Mormon polygamy to date while Volume 3 analyzes the theological foundations of Joseph's controversial doctrine.
