The Polygamy Revelation And The Death Of Joseph Smith is a non-fiction book written by Stuart Martin that explores the controversial practice of polygamy in the early years of the Latter Day Saint movement. The book focuses on the life and teachings of Joseph Smith, the founder of the movement, and his revelation on plural marriage, which was kept secret for many years. Martin delves into the historical context and social factors that contributed to the practice of polygamy, as well as the opposition and persecution faced by the early Mormons. The book also examines the events leading up to Smith's death, including his imprisonment and the mob attack on Carthage Jail, and the impact of his death on the future of the movement. Through meticulous research and analysis, Martin provides a comprehensive and thought-provoking account of a complex and controversial period in American religious history.THIS 32 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Mystery of Mormonism, by Stuart Martin.
