A fascinating and balanced treatment of the development of the Mormon faith and the culture of the people. I appreciated Bowman's integrity, identifying himself as a Mormon in the introduction, but his writing could never be called apologetical. The text is quite readable, though the author begins to create some awkward sentences from the middle of the book onward, forcing this reader to do a few double-takes.
