The book Nauvoo: A Place of Peace, A People of Promise written by Glen M. Leonard is reviewed. Launius is disappointed that the book did not add anything new to the subject and that it has a "faithful" interpretation which only supports traditional, devout thinking. He says that the title illustrates the problems, that Nauvoo was not a place of peace and there was a diverse population, not a unified people.
