Prophet. Polygamist. Visionary. Wanted man.
Joseph Smith, Mormonism’s founder, remains one of America’s most polarizing figures....
*Swimming in Deep Water *is a novel about the incredible life of Joseph Smith, architect of the most popular religion ever born on American soil. He was murdered at age thirty-nine in a bloody gun battle while holed up in jail. Before he was gunned down, he had written the Book of Mormon, met with a variety of angels, rediscovered the Garden of Eden, and was candidate for president of the United States. He amassed a huge following, but he swam in deep water, narrowly dodging a firing squad, declaring bankruptcy, secretly marrying forty women (some of whom were already married), and anointing himself king.
