This book is a wonderful academic biography of Joseph Smith, the founder of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. I appreciated the depth and rigor of the work, and the amount of information that it gave. It is written in an engaging style, but it is still quite dense. Though I already knew many of the events of his life, it helped me put some things into context and gave me a greater understanding of the context of his life. Highly recommend!
