“Thanks for the link, FC.”
It’s a really good one, written in 1875, the voice is quite modern. Chapter 4 goes into some of the “my way or the highway” methods of Brigham Young, which of course carry over into the current attempts to cull any negative mention of Romney’s Mormonism.
An interesting note is that Sydney Rigdon was in Pittsberg when Joseph Smith was killed, apparently because Joseph Smith had made a pass at Rigdon’s daughter! Of course, I’m sure Joseph had no carnal interests there (he was a saint!).
