Brigham Young

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Brigham Young' by M.R. Werner is an extensive and engaging biography of one of the most formidable figures in American history. As the successor to Joseph Smith and the second president of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Brigham Young was the primary architect behind the Mormon settlement of the Great Basin. This work provides a deep exploration of the man known as the 'American Moses,' chronicling his leadership through the arduous trek westward and his subsequent role in founding a religious and social empire in the wilderness of Utah.The book details the rise of Mormonism, the internal and external conflicts of the early church, and the monumental effort required to establish Salt Lake City. Werner examines Young's multifaceted character-as a religious prophet, a shrewd politician, and a pioneering colonizer-while providing historical context for the movement's growth during the mid-19th century. Through this narrative, readers gain a better understanding of the development of the American West and the unique cultural legacy of the Latter-day Saints. 'Brigham Young' serves as both a vital character study and a sweeping historical account of faith, endurance, and state-building on the American frontier.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
