Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Case Against Mormonism
Anti-Mormon Literature. - In almost any large public library one may discover several hundred books, large and small, dealing with the general subject of "Mormonism." A goodly percentage of such books are unfriendly criticisms of the system and its founder: almost none, even those written by scholars and men of attainment - such men usually try to be fair, and "see both sides" - even attempt to be favorable. The situation as regards the system known as "Mormonism," its founder and people, is a curious one; and it is by no means doubtful that considerable injustice has been done all of them. Also, as a side-issue, we may claim that the world has missed acquaintance with several highly significant facts, of interest in theology, sociology and economics, just because we have formed the evil habit of condemning the system under discussion and its adherents, without the formality of a fair trial.
Anti-Mormon Arguments. - A certain noted humorist, in a line of advice to the prospective traveler in our country, added to other matters relating to the West, "And don't fail to get a whack at the Mormons."
