Autorenporträt

Brigham Henry Roberts (1857-1933), commonly referred to as B. H. Roberts, was a prominent figure in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church), a historian, and a prolific author. Born in England and immigrating to America at a young age, Roberts became a passionate member and leader within the LDS Church, serving as a missionary and holding various ecclesiastical positions, including that of a seventy, a high-ranking priesthood office. Roberts was also elected as a Representative to the Utah State Legislature and was a significant intellectual force in his community. His vigorous mind and compelling oratory skills were evident in his writings and sermons. As a historian, he was unwavering in his commitment to detail and authenticity, a trend visible in his authoritative work 'The Missouri Persecutions,' where he documents the trials faced by early Mormons in the 1830s. This book has been considered a fundamental resource on the topic. Versed in theology, history, and philosophy, Roberts's literary style reflects his broad erudition and his ability to interweave academic diligence with the narrative of the Mormon experience. His extensive contributions have made him an enduring figure in Mormon historiography and literature, and his works remain a source of study for scholars interested in the LDS Church and American religious history.
