Book Overview

Polygamy: Was It An Original Tenet Of The Church Of Jesus Christ Of Latter-Day Saints? is a book written by Alexander Hale Smith that explores the history of polygamy in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. The book delves into the origins of the practice and the controversies surrounding it, including the church's official stance on the issue. Smith examines the teachings of Joseph Smith, the founder of the LDS Church, and argues that polygamy was not an original tenet of the faith. He also discusses the role of Brigham Young, who is often associated with the practice of polygamy, and the eventual abandonment of the practice by the church. The book provides a comprehensive look at the history of polygamy in the LDS Church and its impact on the faith and its followers.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
