Publisher's Synopsis
The Mormon people were severely persecuted in the early years of their existence and this persecution was magnified when they started practicing polygamy which they ceased to practice in 1890. Their earlier practice sent many of them to prison, including the author's grandfather, because of the public clamor such as the following: "Mormonism, as a system professing to bless society, is a vile delusion." "Mormonism, as a system professing to advance civilization and education, is a failure." Is Mormonism really a vile delusion? Doesn't every church claim to be the true church? The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Mormon) makes that same claim to being the true church upon the earth. Is it so? Let the reader decide!
