Joseph Smith by Richard Lyman Bushman Book Summary

Founder of the largest indigenous Christian church in American history, Joseph Smith published the 584-page Book of Mormon when he was twenty-three and went on to organize a church, found cities, and attract thousands of followers before his violent death at age thirty-eight. Richard Bushman, an esteemed cultural historian and a practicing Mormon, moves beyond the popular stereotype of Smith as a colorful fraud to explore his personality, his relationships with others, and how he received revelations. An arresting narrative of the birth of the Mormon Church, Joseph Smith: Rough Stone Rolling also brilliantly evaluates the prophet’s bold contributions to Christian theology and his cultural place in the modern world.

Great Book!. I've studied Joseph Smith extensively and this book would have save me a lot of time. It's all in one place, well written and compiled in such a way that allows the reader to get to know the characters, time and roles of those involved in what I consider the some of the most impactful religous events of the 19th century that carry on to today.

Fantastic book. As an active member of the church and a fan (for lack of a better term) of Joseph Smith I do not agree with a review that says that Joseph didn't have faults. I love Joseph Smith and appreciate all that he did, but he was a man. The author in this book gives light on Joseph Smith's life, the good and bad, and also let's the reader know that he was called of God without being off-putting to the non-member reader.

Comprehensive history. Bushman relies on primary sources to provide a comprehensive description of the people and events surrounding the life of Joseph Smith.

Revisionist tripe. What the author calls faults are not faults, but proof of a prophetic calling. Stick to history land leave the conclusions to the reader

Says it how it is. I am a Mormon and believe Joseph Smith was a prophet. There has been much said and written of the man as he himself said there would be. This book is written objectively and is a great testament to a great man. He was a man of God or of the devil, there is no in between. This book will let you come to your own conclusion and I believe in essence the truthfulness of Joseph Smith's message is of the utmost importance to decide yourself.
