In 'A Voice of Warning', Parley P. Pratt provides a compelling eyewitness account of the early days of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. Using extensive knowledge of the Bible, Pratt quotes scripture and explains how many of the doctrines and practices taught by Christ are missing in Christianity but can be found in the restored Church. This 129-page pamphlet provides a powerful argument that the gospel has been restored and that the gathering of Israel is in process as foretold by ancient prophets. Pratt's work is a must-read for those interested in the history and doctrine of the LDS Church.

On September 11, 1857, a wagon train of emigrants passing through the Utah Territory on their way to California were massacred at Mountain Meadows. Although today's historians agree that the principal perpetrators were members of the Mormon militia in southern Utah, how much the central Mormon leadership, especially Brigham Young at the top, knew about the massacre, when and how they learned about it, and the extent of a cover up afterward are still matters of controversy and debate.In this 12th volume of the Arrington Lecture Series, Thomas Alexander (Lemuel Redd Professor of

"Marriage's central role in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints distinguishes the faith while simultaneously reflecting widespread American beliefs. But what does Latter-day Saint marriage mean for men? Holly Welker presents a collection of essays exploring this question. The essayists provide insight into challenges involving sexuality, physical and emotional illness, addiction, loss of faith, infidelity, sexual orientation, and other topics. Conversational and heartfelt, the writings reveal the varied experiences of Latter-day Saint marriage against the backdrop of a society transformed by everything from economic issues affecting marriage to evolving ideas about gender. An insightful exploration of the gap between human realities and engrained ideals, Revising Eternity sheds light on how Latter-day Saint men view and experience marriage today"--

""What an astonishing life and what a remarkable biography. Lewis Barney's sojourn on the hard edge of the American frontier is a forgotten epic. Not only does this book tell of an amazing personal odyssey from his birth in upstate New York in 1808 to his death in Mancos, Colorado, in 1894, but Barney's tale represents a living evocation of some of the most significant themes in American history.
