Paperback. Zustand: Very Good +. Second edition. 208pp. Quarto [27 cm] Tan, black, and white pictorial wraps. The bottom quarter of the rear wrap is just a hair discolored. "Alexander Joseph has commanded international attention as an outspoken polygamist and social revolutionary. DRY BONES reveals the unique perspective afforde…d by Joseph's ancient lifestyle and demonstrates the mental process upon which the success of his marriage and political activities depends. "Joseph's study involves an ancient Egyptian burial disc shrouded in mystery and controversy. The meaning of the hieroglyphic inscriptions on the disc has eluded linguists for centuries. In quest of that understanding Joseph initiates an innovative exploration into history, illuminating seemingly desolate landscape." - from the publisher.

Ephemera. Zustand: Good. Postcard soliciting a pledge applied as payment for the Christian Statesman in support of the National Reform Association to secure the passage of an Anti-Polygamy Amendment to the United States Constitution. The top half of the reverse is sullied and has a patch of adhered paper and several small abrasi…ons (a bit of the text obscured). In an article titled "Exhibiting Theology: James E. Talmage and Mormon Public Relations 1915-20," Bradley Kime writes, "During the decline in anti-Mormon sentiment surrounding World War I, the National Reform Association's nationwide 'Crusade Against Mormonism' was likely the most organized and agitated campaign that the LDS Church encountered. It was certainly the opposition Talmage faced most frequently. From 1914 to 1921, the organization's nationwide lectures, publications, and press efforts unmasked the Mormon menace and called apathetic citizens to arms. Among other resolutions, the Crusade amplified calls for a constitutional antipolygamy amendment, a ban on Mormon leaders from political office, and a prohibition against sending Mormon publications through the mail. The National Reform Association had formed in 1863 to promote a constitutional amendment stating that the United States was a Christian nation." (Journal of Mormon History, Volume 4, No. 1, Winter 2014, p. 212.).

Rudger Clawson was the first Mormon to be convicted for being in violation of the Edmund-Tucker Act, which outlawed polygamy.

He went on to become the President for the Quorum of Twelve Apostles.

3 vols. 8vo. Second edition, considerably enlarged. Second edition, considerably enlarged. 3 vols. 8vo. A defense of polygamy by a Methodist divine (1726-90), who believed that it was justified by Mosaic law and consistent with Christianity. The original edition appeared the year before in 2 volumes. "The publication in 1780 of…his book, Thelyphthora, dealing with a topic which he no doubt thought it proper to entitle in the decent obscurity of a learned language, even though he elaborated the subtitle 'A Treatise of Female Ruin' under the heads of 'marriage, whoredom and fornication, adultery, polygamy, divorce'. Arising from his acquaintance with the plight of the unfortunate inmates of the Lock Hospital, Madan argued at length for the social benefits of polygamy. He realized the daring of what he was doing, calling himself in the preface to the first edition 'a Free-thinker, not in the usual sense of that word' (M. Madan, Thelyphthora, 2nd edn., 1.xv) and recognizing that some might think his subject better 'left under the clouds of obscurity . hidden from vulgar observation' (ibid., 1.xi). He disclaimed any advocacy of polygamy in terms of satisfying sexual appetite, but asserted that it was 'expedient in some cases, necessary in others' to prevent greater damage, citing in support the Mosaic injunctions of Exodus 22: 16 and Deuteronomy 22: 28-9. In doing so he alleged that while society still chose to recognize part of what he called 'God's law' in condemning fornication, adultery, and marriage within the bounds of consanguinity, it nevertheless saw fit to ignore the requirements of these verses. Realizing, however, that in the Christian dispensation he needed New Testament support, he also argued from such texts as 1 Corinthians 6: 15. His idiosyncrasies were not lacking in boldness, such that he could describe marriage as an outward 'human invention' (ibid., 1.24) and contrast divine ordinance and civil contract (ibid., 2.64). The crux of his case was expressed in a single sentence: 'Every man who has seduced a woman, whether with or without a promise of marriage, should be obliged to wed her publicly' (ibid., 2.67)." DNB. Original boards, tan paper spine and blue boards; uncut. Spines worn, else fine. Very handsome.
