One of the earliest firsthand histories of Mormonism, Origin, Rise, and Progress of Mormonism by Pomeroy Tucker provides a contemporary account of Joseph Smith, the coming forth of the Book of Mormon, and the beginnings of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
Originally published in 1867, Tucker was uniquely positioned to tell this story. As editor of the Wayne Sentinel in Palmyra, New York, he knew Joseph Smith and many of the movement's earliest figures personally, participated in the printing of the first Book of Mormon, and drew upon firsthand observations, local interviews, and historical records.
Although Tucker wrote from a critical perspective, his work remains one of the most frequently referenced early non-Mormon histories of the movement and preserves numerous firsthand recollections unavailable elsewhere.
Perfect for historians, researchers, students, and anyone interested in Joseph Smith, early Mormonism, the Book of Mormon, or the history of American religion.
