Paperback. Condizione: Fair.  For more than 150 years the story of Mormon origins has been rewritten to a point where only fragments remain of the original. This book restores much of the human drama and detail. Moving from village to village, the Joseph Smith, Sr., family lived in constant poverty. When in 1825 Joseph, Sr., a cooper, defaulted on the family's final mortgage payment, he and his nineteen-year-old son, Joseph Jr., traveled 100 miles south to Pennsylvania to join a band of money diggers on a desperate hunt for buried Spanish treasure. Following this ill-fated quest, father and son returned near-penniless to New York to face eviction. They resettled in a small Manchester cabin where young Joseph later saw angels-not unlike his father and other contemporaries-and eventually found hieroglyph-inscribed sheets of gold, which his former money-digging associates repeatedly tried to steal. During this turbulent time Joseph Smith was brought to court three times for crystal gazing, eloped with a former landlord's daughter, watched as his mother and siblings were excommunicated from the Presbyterian church, published his translation of the hieroglyphs, founded the Church of Christ, saw a potential convert forcibly abducted by her minister, and eventually sought refuge in Ohio where he changed the name of his church and its place of origin.…

Hardcover. Condizione: New. Condizione sovraccoperta: New. Brand New Music CD.; Before the LDS Church was organized, Joseph Smith received a revelation telling him that twelve men would be called as latter-day apostles. Their assignment would be to warn men and women that the end was near. Although the determination of who would fill these positions was delayed for five years, when it finally happened, God reiterated that these men were to "prune the vineyard for the last time" because the Second Coming was nigh. In fact, "fifty six years would wind up the scene," they were told. Of the twelve men selected, nine would eventually be pruned from the vineyard themselves, to varying degrees. Seven were excommunicated, one of whom was reinstated to his position in the Twelve. Of the other six, the subjects of this book, none returned to the apostleship and four never came back to the Church at all. Those who left faded into obscurity except for when they are occasionally still mentioned in sermons as cautionary tales. But two of them made their marks in other areas of society, John Boynton becoming a successful dentist, a popular lecturer, geologist, and inventor with dozens of important patents to his name, while Lyman Johnson became a prominent attorney and business owner.Even though Luke Johnson, Thomas B. Marsh, William McLellin, and William Smith became religious wanderers and tried unsuccessfully to adjust to life outside of the Church, their experiences were interesting and comprise valuable case studies in belief and disaffection. ; 9.13 X 6.30 X 0.94 inches; 400 pages.…

Paperback. Condizione: New. Brand new softcover book! ; Contributions by Christopher Woods, Marc Coenen, and H. Michael MarquardtThis book marks the publication of the first, full translantion of the so-called Joseph Smith Egyptian papyri translated into English. These papyri comprise "The Breathing Permit of Hor," "The Book of the Dead of Ta-Sherit-Min," "The Book of the Dead Chapter 125 of Nefer-ir-nebu," "The Book of the Dead of Amenhotep," and "The Hypocephalus of Sheshonq," as well as some loose fragments and patches. The papyri were acquired by members of the LDS Church in the 1830s in Kirtland, Ohio, and rediscovered in the mid-1960s in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. They served as the basis for Joseph Smith's "Book of Abraham," published in Nauvoo, Illinois, in 1842 and later canonized.As Robert K. Ritner, Professor of Egyptology at the Oriental Institute, University of Chicago, explains: "The translation and publication of the Smith papyri must be accessible not merely to Egyptologists but to non-specialists within and outside of the LDS religious community for whom the Book of Abraham was produced." Dr. Ritner provides not only his own original translations but gives variant translations by other researchers to demonstrate better the "evolving process" of decipherment. He also includes specialized transliterations and his own informed commentary on the accuracy of past readings. "These assessments," he notes, "are neither equivocal nor muted." At the same time, they do not have a "partisan basis originating in any religious camp."The present volume includes insightful introductory essays by noted scholars Christopher Woods, Associate Professor of Sumerology, University of Chicago ("The Practice of Egyptian Religion at 'Ur of the Chaldees'"), Marc Coenen, Egyptian Studies Ph. D., University of Leuven, Belgium ("The Ownership and Dating of Certain Joseph Smith Papyri"), and H. Michael Marquardt, author of The Revelations of Joseph Smith: Text and Commentary ("Joseph Smith's Egyptian Papers: A History"). It contains twenty-eight photographic plates, including color images of the primary papyri (with corrected alignment for Papyrus Joseph Smith 2) and other relevant items. ; 6" x 9"; 348 pages.…
