The book provides a comprehensive account of the history, culture, and beliefs of the Mormons, a religious group that settled in Utah in the mid-19th century.

Meakin provides a detailed account of the early years of the Mormon Church, including the life of its founder, Joseph Smith, and the challenges faced by the early pioneers who settled in Utah.Meakin also explores the unique social and religious practices of the Mormons, including their emphasis on family values, the role of women in the Church, and their controversial practice of polygamy. He examines the economic activities of the Mormons, including their success in agriculture, mining, and other industries.Throughout the book, Meakin provides a balanced and objective view of the Mormon community, highlighting both their strengths and weaknesses. He also offers insights into the broader social and political context of Utah and the United States during the late 19th and early 20th centuries.Overall, Leaves of Truth: Utah and the Mormons is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and culture of the Mormon Church and its impact on the development of Utah and the American West.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
