Foreword by Richard Lloyd Dewey. This is the ONLY biography about Joseph written from personal interviews with his friends! The author served as First Counselor to four prophets, all of whom knew Joseph. Having full access to Church archives, Cannon weaves the intricate tale of Joseph’s intriguing biography in a mesmerizing manner. He stays focused, keeping the reader spell-bound as Joseph has to flee time and again for his life. The reason Apostates and bigoted religious leaders seek his blood. Seen from an insider’s view of what really took place in Nauvoo, Cannon shows how the conspirators worked, even recruiting the governors of two states to get Joseph taken down. But in the end it was Joseph who prevailed spiritually – proven in part by the success of the restored church and its 12 million members today. This must-read biography gives insights, humorous stories and anecdotes with suspenseful plotting rarely seen in this long out-of-print book that has been re-published in clean, modern type for easy reading.
