Reviews
"Illuminates important questions and concerns of both past and present. . . . Well researched and clearly written, Wayward Saints is an important and insightful look at tensions within Mormonism. It deserves a wide and thoughtful reading." -- John Sillito, Dialogue: A Journal of Mormon Thought

Synopsis
A story that includes spiritualistic séances, hidden conspiracy, and an important church trial, Wayward Saints chronicles the challenge, during the 1870's, of a group of British Mormon intellectuals to Brigham Young's leadership and authority. William S. Godbe and his associates revolted because they disliked Young's authoritarian community and resented what they perceived as the church's intrusion into matters of personal choice. Expelled from the church, they established the "New Movement," which eventually faltered. Both a study in intellectual history and an investigation of religious dissent, Wayward Saints explores nineteenth-century American spiritualism as well as the ideas and institutional structure of first- and second-generation Mormonism., A story that includes spiritualist seances, conspiracy, and an important church trial, Wayward Saints chronicles the 1870s challenge of a group of British Mormon intellectuals to Brigham Young's leadership and authority.
