The Murder of the Mormon Prophet: by LeGrand Baker
Political Prelude to the Death of Joseph Smith
For the first time a historian has given us a national, as well as a local matrix into which one can place the life of Joseph Smith and his Nauvoo community, and in that context make better sense of it all. This bookin the works for 30 yearsover 800 pagesis the first to present such a comprehensive and detailed look at the short period preceding the Prophets martyrdom. It is ground-breaking for these reasons:
It examines the Anti-Mormon network that planned the murders of Joseph and Hyrum, and the expulsion of the Saints from Illinois.
It identifies key players and the involvement of eachshowing clear evidence of Governor Fords early involvement in the plans for the murders.
An extensive legal analysis of the charges of treason against Joseph Smith, and concludes that the charges were completely without foundation.
An extensive analysis of the freedom of the press issueoften mis-represented by historiansthat arose over the destruction of the Nauvoo Expositor. It turns out that contrary to what has been written regarding the subjectthe question of freedom of the press was not an issue of the time.
It examines about 250 newspapers throughout the United States and the Republic of Texas, to demonstrate the real mood of the nation regarding Joseph Smith and the Mormons generallythe depth of this research just has not been done in the past! And what it shows is quite different than historians have represented it to be!
It follows through the nations newspapers Joseph Smiths candidacy for President of the United States, and shows that his candidacy was actually taken very seriously!
It has a comprehensive index and the last chapter is a fascinating and exhaustive look at obituaries published in newspapers throughout the country after the martyrdom! [800+p.]. mormon mormons mormonism lds
