Product description: Perhaps the most pervasive myth concerning the great Mormon leader and colonizer Brigham Yong is that although he certainly possessed a magnificent supply of "brilliance, energy, and determination as a practical organizer", he came up brutally short in the reals of intellectual and philosophical savvy. From critical outsiders to adulatory apologists, his many biographers have almost uniformly denied the role of genuine theologian to the second prophet of the Mormons.... This work immediately dispels the myth of the non-philosophical Brigham Young.... Young plainly had in his mind numerous theological constructs of a radical nature. Indeed this work contains much that will serve to disquiet many comfortable Mormons... [This book] will serve the honest scholar and student of Mormonism with an invaluable reference on the essence of what the Restoration suggested to theology when it still represented a truly radical departure from mainstream Christian dogma.
