The Mormon Delusion
The first in a series of books comprising an exposé of the Mormon Church (The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints). This volume concentrates on polygamy and little known polyandry which is hidden from rank and file Mormons. Historical evidence proves the Mormon Church has rewritten its own history through lies, suppression, omission and interpolation; such that the truth is so well hidden from members; unless they look outside the Church for information; they will never know of the continued conspiracy to deceive them. Contains over 120 pages of appendices, including complete lists and analysis of all the wives and families of Joseph Smith, Brigham Young and Heber C. Kimball, highlighting polyandrous relationships and children born into those unions; plus details of over a hundred children born post 1890 to polygamous wives of General Authorities who violated their own canonised Manifesto after they had covenanted to stop the practice.

From Icons to Idols
In 1547, the young King Edward VI issued a series of religious injunctions that were intended to reform the Churches in England. Religious imagery was a tangible and permanent aspect of the landscape, both inside and outside churches. For many people, it was one of the first aspects of the Church to be reformed, and the degree to which it was reformed often was indicative of an individual's or community's theological leanings. Behind this destruction lay a longstanding debate over the nature, purpose, and appropriate uses of images, particularly in relation to worship and devotion. The Reformation lines between icon and idol, however, are much more difficult to identify than any single debat...
The Severances
A richly texture portrait of ten generations of Anglo-Saxon strivers compelled by necessity and nurturance to be community builders. Spanning nearly the entirety of American history and touching on nearly every geographical section of the country, The Severances describes in remarkable detail how each successive generation of a family whose arrival on these shores predated America's founding met the challenges of its time and place, built on the sacrifices and gains of forebears, chose to enjoy mounting success, implanted family traditions and beliefs, and endeavored to give something back to society. Inheritors of their Puritan ancestors' ambition of creating a model żcity upon a hill,ż the Cleveland branch of the family assembled one of 19th-century America's impressive fortunes and made their name locally synonymous with outsized philanthropic gestures, most notably the Depression-era gift to the people of Cleveland of Severance Hall, the magnificent home of The Cleveland Orchestra.
