On a very special edition of Mormon Book Reviews Steven Pynakker is joined by his mother Elizabeth for a book review of "Upon Destiny's Song" by Mike Ericksen & Sage Steadman. In this historical novel, which is based on real facts and history, my Mom found a very compelling story and she wanted to share her thoughts and give us her review! I plan on having on the authors on soon to discuss the book as well. Thanks Mom! #lds #mormonbooks

On the lastest episode of Mormon Book Reviews, the book "Method Infinite: Freemasonry and The Mormon Restoration" by Cheryl Bruno, Joe Steve Swick, and Nicholas Literski is previewed! I was sent a preview copy of the book by it's publisher Greg Kofford Books. I have been able to read parts of it and the book is groundbreaking and awesome! After discussing the contents of it with my producer Anthony Virella (who did an awesome job in the post production of this video) we decided to produce a special spoiler free sneak preview of the publication. This will be the start of my Mormonism & Masonry Summer series. In addition to having on Mormon scholar and Freemason Jason Smith (tomorrow night's interview), I will also have on some of the authors of Method Infinte on in the lead up to the Aug. 9th release. Please click on the link in the description to pre-order a copy. Stay Tuned!

On the latest episode of Mormon Book Reviews, Steven Pynakker discusses the book "The History of Warsaw Illinois: Including the Mormon Period" by Brian Stutzman. This is the first comprehensive history of Warsaw that has ever been written. Brian does a fantastic job detailing it's history and it helps provide the context for Warsaw's relationship with Nauvoo and the Church. In the Mormon period the book covers Thomas Sharp, the participants who killed Joseph Smith, the sham trial of the defendants, the bravery of Eliza Graham to testify at the trial and much more. Many of you will find the history of before and after the Mormon period interesting as well.
