Volume 140 pages
This book delves into the controversial practice of polygamy in the Latter-Day Saints beliefs, which was publicly practiced from 1852 to 1890 by between 20 and 30 percent of Latter-day Saint families, and continues to be practiced by various denominations of fundamentalist Mormonism today. The topic is explored through a series of letters between Joseph Smith, the founder of the LDS Church and a practitioner of plural marriage, and Richard C. Evans, the founder of the RLDS Church, who denounced the practice. A fascinating and informative read for anyone interested in the history of the Latter-Day Saints and the debate around polygamy.
