Shields discusses the founding of the Church through the historical lens of the culture in which Joseph Smith lived. He discusses the influence of the First Vision and the Book of Mormon on the founding of the Church and the influence of Alexander Campbell on the Restoration movements of the time. Shields concludes that the RLDS Church is "closely connected philosophically to Campbellism."
