Description: Mormonism Unveiled: The Life and Confession of John D. Lee PB - 2008 paperback in good condition. This is a reprint of the 1891 edition of John Doyle Lee’s autobiography and story of Brigham Young and the earliest days of Mormonism, which was written after Lee's conviction for the 1857 attack on an Arkansas immigrant wagon train camped at Mountain Meadows, Utah, and originally published in 1877. CONDITION: This vintage paperback is in good condition. The covers are turned with age and use and the front cover is bent at bottom right as shown in photos. Some overall discoloring to interior pages due to age, but no found flaws otherwise, including no tears and no marks with the exception of turned bottom corners to the first few pages, also shown in photos. Some slight evidence of moisture to first two pages. Please see all photos, as they are a vital part of the description of this item. Also, please ask any questions or request additional photos if you would like. Thank you for your interest! A LITTLE BACKGROUND: Lee was the only member of the Church of Latter Day Saints to be sentenced for participation in the killing of more than 120 men, women, and children bound for California. Lee described his early Church missions among "gentiles," his work with Joseph Smith and Brigham Young, and the persecutions endured by Church leaders and followers that compelled them to move west. Bitter over his conviction, Lee blamed Church leaders for the Mountain Meadows murders, calling Brigham Young "the greatest criminal of the nineteenth century."
