This is an absolutely devastating critique of the mormon church. It boldly shines a light into those dark corners of mormon history that the church has done its best to deny and hide. Including: Joseph Smith's conviction for fraud (using the same stone and hat that he used to "translate" the Book of Mormon), Joseph Smith's marriage to a 14 year old, his polygamy, the various accounts of his 'first vision', the murderous danites, the mountain meadows massacre, the temple 'ceremonies' taken from the free masons, and much, much more. I look forward to more books in this series and hope that [a:David Fitzgerald|4438766|David Fitzgerald|https://s.gr-assets.com/assets/nophoto/user/m_50x66-82093808bca726cb3249a493fbd3bd0f.png] adds many more religions to his critical eye.

A decent, if somewhat superficial, introduction to Mormon history and thought. The author makes no claims to be comprehensive, but also includes numerous sources for those interested in delving further. This book is addressed more to non-believers than to believers, though the level of snark is much lower than the author warns about for sensitive readers. A good introduction for people who just want some idea what the people on their porch believe before they let them in - and the author advises you to let them in, and engage them. in the last section, he gives hints for people wishing to engage with Mormon missionaries. In spite of the rather more superficial treatment than some of the other works I've read, I did learn quite a bit from this book, which takes a different tack than many others and engages Mormonism beyond Joseph Smith much more than the usual.
