This was fascinating. There was such a plethora of names, dates, and so forth that it was a little hard to follow sometimes, though because of frequent repetition throughout, I did in the end still get a good grasp of what the authors were claiming. I find the authors' theory believable and well-documented. Obviously the Mormon church doesn't agree with their findings. The premise of the authors' research is that the book of Mormon was lifted from a historical novel by Solomon Spaulding. The theory may not be 100% truth but there does seem to be a lot of evidence pointing that direction.
