Book review: 'The Mormon Church on Trial: Transcripts of the Reed Smoot Hearings'

what a price for that book?

Another book that has responded to that issue, and other political problems which should concern Mormons and non-Mormons, is "When Salt Lake City Calls."

The price of the book is $49.95, about 750 pages with foreward by Smoot scholar, Harvard Heath. Another interesting book on Mormonism and politics is Elder Statesman: A Biography of F. Reuben Clark by D. Michael Quinn. Clark was the Ambassador to Mexico and probably on his way to become a Supreme Court Justice when he was called to be a councilor in the LDS First Presidency.
