Mormon eye-opener Jun 22, 2009
An excellent treatise of early Mormon history and doctrine - - a real eye-opener for the serious searcher.

Short, fun & very interesting May 26, 2009
This book is very readable and is written in a two person dialogue style that is very engaging. The author is very knowledgeable about the LDS church and its doctrine and teachings.
It is a critical book, but it doesn't come across as a unwarranted attack towards the LDS church, which is nice. I found it very entertaining and I also learned some things as well, which is what I look for in a book. I highly recommend it for anyone interested in Mormonism.

Great Starting Point for LDS Members Oct 16, 2008
The book came in perfect condition. A very easy read with very good thought provoking responses from a non-mormon who had done his research in a discussion with a returning missionary. As an LDS member doing research on the claims the church has taught me over the past forty years this book had several things that I had not thought of that are actually blatant and stare you right in the face about the Book of Mormon and the churches claims of its historicity. Also if I had known about Emmanual Swedenborg, Jesse Strang, and Ethan Smith as discussed in the book before I joined the Church I would have never joined. The fact revealed in the book that apparently women were not important, were almost non-existant and had nothing of import to say in the Book of Mormon supportts B.H.Roberts is his determination that the book was indeed the product of an undeveloped and single mind. The book does not go into specific details however I felt that most of the questions and information presented did not require much more detail. I felt Ed Bliss did a great job of not offending while providing factual information that is difficult to dispute without getting into bizzare apologetic therories. If you are a questioning LDS member or thinking of joining I recommend you start here.

Very well presented. Jul 09, 2008
This book goes straight to the heart of the matter of mormonism. There are hundreds of side issues that cast doubt on the LDS church, but this book deals with the foundation upon which the church rests, fuzzy fealings and the book of mormon. I have read a dozen books critical of the LDS church. After I read this one I bought a 2nd and 3rd copy to share with friends and family.

 A Friendly Discussion: Mormonism--Pro and Con Nov 05, 2007
This book was very helpful to my teenage daughter who has two Mormon friends. It helped her understand their doctrine in clear, easy terms and how to carry on a conversation with them about their faith. Highly recommend.
