Is The Book of Mormon a Great American Novel? Avi Steinberg thinks so. In this quirky travelogue—part fan nonfiction, part personal quest—he follows the trail laid out in Joseph Smith’s book. From Jerusalem to the ruined Mayan cities of Central America to upstate New York and, finally, to Jackson County, Missouri—the spot Smith identified as the site of the Garden of Eden—Steinberg traces The Book’s unexpected path and grapples with Joseph Smith’s demons—and his own. Literate and funny, personal and provocative, the genre-bending The Lost Book of Mormon boldly explores our deeply human impulse to write books, and affirms the abiding power of story.
Joseph Smith and the Origins of The Book of Mormon, 2d ed. by David Persuitte Pdf
Just as a growing interest in millennialism at the turn of this century has rejuvenated religious debate and questions concerning the fate of the world, so did Mormonism develop from millennial enthusiasm early in the nineteenth century. Joseph Smith, the founder of Mormonism, and a provocative, even controversial figure in history, declared that he had been given the authority to restore the true church in the latter days. The primary source of Smith's latter-day revelation is The Book of Mormon, and to fully understand his role as the founder of the Mormon faith, one must also understand The Book of Mormon and how it came to be. Unfortunately, the literature about Joseph Smith and The Book of Mormon is permeated with contradiction and controversy. In the first edition of this impressive work, David Persuitte provided a significant amount of revealing biographical information about Smith that resolved many of the controversies concerning his character. He also presented an extensive comparative analysis positing that the probable conceptual source for The Book of Mormon was a book entitled View of the Hebrews; or the Tribes of Israel in America, which was written by an early New England minister named Ethan Smith. Now in an expanded and revised second edition incorporating many new findings relating to the origin of The Book of Mormon, Mr. Persuitte's book continues to shed much new light on the path Joseph Smith took toward founding the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

This book is a must for the serious student of Book of Mormon geography. Written with an "outside the box" approach, it takes a new look at the subject and proposes new locations based upon the clues given by the book's prophets. The author reasons that the primary clue would be the narrow neck of land and proposes a location for that landmark. The remaining lands and cities are then located working out from this key point. Proposals for the Jaredite lands are also made, and the Jaredite and Nephite cultures compared and contrasted. The important topics of distance, direction and populations are discussed in a straight forward manner. Where possible, archeological sites are identified and correlated with the proposed geography. A location for the Hill Cumorah is suggested, and a novel method proposed for proving Book of Mormon sites. The work is appropriately illustrated with helpful maps and charts. A discussion of the various theories regarding Book of Mormon lands is also included.
