A mad-man? A con-man? A saint? Joseph Smith, the founder of the Mormon Church, lived a risky, dramatic life. As a boy, he claimed magical powers. As a youth, he asserted that he had seen Jesus face to face. As a young man, he announced that he had discovered a trove of gold plates which he translated into the Book of Mormon. When he was only twenty-four, Smith ruled a church as its prophet and seer. Three years later, he secretly taught that God had restored the practice of polygamy. His beloved Emma would learn about the revelation when she met her husband's sixteen year-old plural wife. By the end of this, the first part of an astonishing story, Smith was a man on the run, galloping away in the middle of the night, fleeing from a furious mob of former followers. Robert W. Taylor is proud of his Mormon roots. He was amazed to discover that nobody has ever written a biographical novel about Joseph Smith the Prophet. After four years of research and writing, Taylor brings to life one of the most fascinating men America has ever produced. Anyone curious about the Mormon Church should read this amazing story.
