About this ebook
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:
#1 The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, which is the largest Mormon church, is located in Salt Lake City. The choir that performs at the temple is representative of the Mormons as a people: chaste, optimistic, and outgoing. But Mormons and Mormon Fundamentalists believe in the same holy texts and the same sacred history.
#2 The LDS Church is extremely defensive about its short, uncommonly rich history, and no aspect of that history is more important than polygamy. Polygamy was a tenet of Joseph Smith’s church that was important enough to be canonized as Section 132 of The Doctrine and Covenants.
#3 While the Utah War did not remove Brigham from power, it did end the practice of plural marriage, which angered many American presidents. The LDS Church eventually renounced polygamy, but some high-ranking members continued to secretly take multiple wives well into the twentieth century.
#4 The Grand Canyon is a stupendous 277-mile rent in the planet's hide that serves as a formidable natural barrier between Arizona and the rest of the country. It is home to one of the lowest population densities in the country.
