Evans, Richard C. Forty Years in the Mormon Church: Why I Left It!. Toronto, Canada: by author, 1920.

Lesueur, James W. “Ancient American Ruins and Their Story.” Utah Genealogical and Historical Magazine (January 1920): 28-33.

Some traditions of the Native Americans speak of people of the American continent who were descendants of Shem and were scattered at the time of “the confusion of tongues,” of people who believed they descended from the Jews and had preserved traditions of Moses and a miraculous crossing of the Red Sea. Joseph Smith brought forth the Book of Mormon by the power of God and it explains the ruins and ends the mystery surrounding them.

Snyder, John Jacob. Glad Tidings. Kansas City: Truth Publishers, 1920.

The Book of Mormon fulfills the words of the prophet Isaiah. It is an important book for the salvation of man, but the RLDS church condemns the Doctrine and Covenants and declares the “Mormon church” a stumbling block to the acceptance of the Book of Mormon. The witnesses to the book never denied their testimony.

Talmage, James E. The Story and the Philosophy of ‘Mormonism.’. Salt Lake City: Deseret News Press, 1920.

Hart, Charles H. “Joseph the Prophet.” Improvement Era 23, no. 6 (1920): 491-495.

This article argues that it is more difficult to think Joseph Smith could invent the Book of Mormon, given his youth, limited experience, and opportunities, than to believe he was inspired. Joseph would have needed extensive research to have learned, for example, that Native Americans used stone boxes for the burial of valuables, a fact virtually unknown in his day. Not until 1906 were such boxes discovered in the areas of Toronto, Tennessee, Illinois, and New Mexico.

Criticisms against the Book of Mormon’s style and lack of unity does not mean that the book does not contain spiritual material. Its plainness and doctrinal content excels the Bible and should have an equal place with the Bible on the pulpit. Its most important purpose is to be a missionary tool.

Morton, William A. “Objections to the Book of Mormon Answered.” The Latter-day Saints’ Millennial Star 83, no. 41 (13 October 1921): 641-45.

Morton responds to three objections to the Book of Mormon. Mr. Rought Brooks of the Burnley News maintains that the Book of Mormon is weakened because Joseph Smith used a “peek-stone” to search for money, and the Book of Mormon mentions the use of “precious steel,” domesticated horses, cows and oxen, and the compass. Morton counters that the Chinese used magnetic directors in 2634 B.C., ancient iron remains have been dug up in the New World, as have remains of horses. Buffaloes are domesticated cows and oxen gone wild.

Subsequently he saw similar figures in the Easter Islands and in Peru. This is seen by Adams as evidence that the Polynesians came from the Americas.

Gray, A. F. Menace of Mormonism. Anderson, IN: Gospel Trumpet, 1926.

Chapter 3 of this polemical work against Mormonism is devoted exclusively to the Book of Mormon. The author attempts to discredit Mormon interpretations of Bible prophecy that support the Book of Mormon. He discusses the Anthon episode, problems in the issue of translation, Bible plagiarism and anachronistic usage of biblical material such as the Sermon on the Mount, linguistic problems, the term Bible used 600 years before Christ, New Testament phraseology, Isaiah, lack of scientific evidence, and more. He concludes that the Book of Mormon is not a true history, but a fraud.
