À propos de cette écoute
"The History of the Saints; or, An Exposé of Joe Smith and Mormonism" is a book written by John Cook Bennett in 1842. Bennett, once an associate of Joseph Smith, the founder of the Latter Day Saint movement, and a prominent figure in the early days of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church), became one of its most outspoken critics after his excommunication.
The book is a controversial and critical account of the early history of the LDS Church. Bennett's work offers a scathing review of Joseph Smith and the practices of the Mormon community in Nauvoo, Illinois. He covers various topics, including the church's political and social practices, alleged secret rites, and polygamy, which was a deeply controversial issue at the time.
Bennett's book is significant in the history of the LDS Church as it is one of the earliest published accounts challenging the church's narrative and leadership. However, it's important to note that the accuracy and objectivity of Bennett's account have been a subject of debate. His work is often viewed with skepticism, as it was written in a context of personal conflict and disillusionment with the church leadership. Despite this, "The History of the Saints" remains a notable document for those studying the early history of Mormonism and its societal impact.
