paperback. Zustand: New. 352pp. Octavo [21.5cm] Illustrated wraps. Still in publishers shrink wrap. "In late 1866, when Salt Lake City attorney Robert Baskin looked down at the mutilated body of a client, he resolved he would do all in his power to increase federal authority in Utah to ensure that perpetrators of such crimes would not go unpunished. He became the Assistant U.S. Attorney, Salt Lake City mayor, and a Utah Supreme Court justice. Through all this, he was seen as a thorn in the side of the Utah establishment. Even so, readers should appreciate his measured tone and lawyerly objectivity, as well as his graceful prose, indicative of a Harvard education, and his solid documentation intended to convince skeptics. After Reminiscences was published in 1914, Baskin sparred with prominent Mormon writer Orson F. Whitney, who suggested that "doubtless the fear, well-founded it seems, that judges would be sent to Utah as an engine of oppression" was the reason for excesses. Baskin countered, "Yes, without doubt it was â fear' that inspired disloyal actsâ "fear the federal government would send judges here to execute impartiality as the law of the land.".

Paperback. Zustand: New. Brand new softcover book! Never been read! ; BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR, JOHN WHITMER HISTORICAL ASSOCIATIONAvailable for the first time fifty years after the author's death, Studies of the Book of Mormon presents this respected church leader's investigation into Mormonism's founding scripture. Reflecting his talent for combining history and theology, B. H. Roberts considered the evident parallels between the Book of Mormon and Ethan Smith's View of the Hebrews, a book that predated the Mormon scripture by seven years. If the Book of Mormon is not historical, but rather a reflection of the misconceptions current in Joseph Smith's day regarding Indian origins, then its theological claims are suspect as well, Roberts asserted. In this and other research, it was Roberts's proclivity to go wherever the evidence took him, in this case anticipating and defending against potential future problems. Yet the manuscript was so poorly received by fellow church leaders that it was left to Roberts alone to decide whether he had overlooked some important piece of the puzzle or whether the Mormon scripture's claims were, in fact, illegitimate. Clearly for most of his colleagues, institutional priorities overshadowed epistemological integrity. But Roberts's pathbreaking work has been judged by the editor to be methodologically sound--still relevant today. It shows the work of a keen mind, and illustrates why Roberts was one of the most influential Mormon thinkers of his day. The manuscript is accompanied by a preface and introduction, a history of the documents' provenances, a biographical essay, correspondence to and from Roberts relating to the manuscript, a bibliography, and an afterword--all of which put the information into perspective. ; 6" x 9"; 416 pages.

Erstausgabe Signiert
First Edition. 375pp. Octavo [23.5 cm] Dark blue cloth. Very good/Very good. Minor moisture stain to jacket's rear panel. Does not affect boards. Inscribed by the editor on the front free endsheet. Edited and with an introduction by Brigham D. Madsen. Biographical sketch by Sterling MCMurrin. This work contains three lengthy and previously unpublished essays by B.H. Roberts on the Book of Mormon, including his work comparing the Book of Mormon with Ethan Smith's 'View of the Hebrews.' An excellent work from 'The Defender of the Faith.' Brigham H. Roberts (1857-1933) was one of the seven presidents of the First Council of the Seventy. A voluminous writer, he is perhaps best known for his outstanding A Comprehensive History of the Church, a major landmark in LDS historical writing from which this selection has been gleaned. Born in England, he was baptized in Utah in 1867, following his emigration. He graduated from the University of Deseret in 1878, taught school, and gradually drifted into journalism. He filled missions in Tennessee (1880-82), in the southern states (1883-86), and in England (1886-88). In 1888 he was called to the First Council of the Seventy; in 1889 he spent four mouths in prison for "unlawful cohabitation." Elected to the U.S. House of Representatives, Roberts was denied his seat because of his polygamist beliefs. His histories and biographies and treatises remain among the important works of Mormon literature.
