A collection of shorter works written during the early decades of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, often known in that time as Mormons. Three key works from the prophet Joseph Smith, Jr. discussing his history, his theology, and his politics bookend the anthology as it moves from a discussion of the Prophet's validity by Orson Pratt, to some foundational doctrine by Morgan and Wilson, to apologetics by Smith and Pratt, Whitney, and Talmage, and finally a discussion of governance, both in the church and in secular society, from Taylor, Pratt, and Smith. - Summary by James Bleckley
