The Prophets: Or Mormonism Unveiled is a book written by Orvilla S. Belisle and published in 1855. The book is a critical examination of the beliefs and practices of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, commonly known as the Mormon Church. Belisle, who was a former member of the church, provides an insider's perspective on the teachings of Mormonism and the actions of its leaders. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which focuses on a different aspect of Mormonism. Belisle discusses the history of the church, its doctrines, and its practices, including polygamy, which was a controversial issue at the time. She also examines the role of Joseph Smith, the founder of the church, and his successors, including Brigham Young, who led the church after Smith's death. Belisle's tone throughout the book is critical, and she is unapologetic in her condemnation of the church and its leaders. She argues that Mormonism is a dangerous and deceptive religion that preys on the vulnerable and exploits its members for financial gain. Overall, The Prophets: Or Mormonism Unveiled is a scathing critique of the Mormon Church that offers a unique perspective on the religion from a former member. The book is an important historical document that sheds light on the early days of the church and the controversies that surrounded it.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
