Henry Caswall's background as a clergyman and traveler undoubtedly influenced his decision to write about the Mormons and their city, showcasing his deep curiosity and scholarly approach to understanding different religious communities.

Reverend Henry Caswall (1810-1870) was an English clergyman, an inquisitive traveler, and an observant writer. Trained at Oxford, where he took Holy Orders, Caswall ventured across the Atlantic, marking his presence with the publication of his experiences and observations. Among his works, 'The City of the Mormons; or, Three Days at Nauvoo, in 1842' stands out for offering an intriguing glimpse into the early days of the Mormon community in Nauvoo, Illinois. Caswall's account, underscored by a skeptical appraisal of Mormon beliefs and practices, was informed by his firsthand observations during his brief stay in the burgeoning city. Equipped with an erudite background, his narrative weaves theological critique with descriptions of the city's architecture, social structures, and the charisma of its founder, Joseph Smith, making his work a valuable resource for religious scholars and historians of early American religious movements. His literary style combines a scholar's precision with the discerning eye of an outsider—a reflection, perhaps, of his broader ecclesiastical and cultural interests. Although Caswall might not be as widely recognized as other writers of his era, 'The City of the Mormons' contributes a noteworthy perspective on the religious mosaic that is a fundamental aspect of the American experience.
