Sunstone capital
about 1846
from the temple of the Latter-day Saints in Nauvoo, Illinois
Joseph Smith published the Book of Mormon in 1830, during a great Christian revivalist movement. Persecuted from the beginning, the Latter-day Saints left New York State and went west in search of sanctuary. Nauvoo was just one step along the way of a migration toward what became Salt Lake City, Utah; it drew tens of thousands of converts from the eastern United States and many European countries. |
