Storming the Nation : The Unknown Contributions of Joseph Smith’s Political Missionaries

Provo, UT

Religious Studies Center - BYU

2020

"This volume uncovers the significant but previously unknown contributions of the electioneers who advocated for Joseph Smith's 1844 presidential campaign. The focus is the cadre of more than six hundred political missionaries--who they were before the campaign, their activities and experiences as electioneers, and who they became following the campaign's untimely collapse.
