Author Description

The Story Of The Mormons From The Date Of Their Origin To The Year 1901 is a comprehensive historical account of the origins and development of the Mormon religion. Written by William Alexander Linn, this book traces the history of the Mormon church from its founding by Joseph Smith in the early 19th century to the year 1901, covering key events such as the establishment of the church in Nauvoo, Illinois, the migration of Mormons to Utah, and the development of the church's unique doctrines and practices. Linn also explores the challenges and controversies faced by the Mormon community, including conflicts with non-Mormon settlers, the practice of polygamy, and the church's changing relationship with the United States government.
