Mormonism is one of the world's fastest growing religions, doubling its membership        every 15 years. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the formal        denomination of the Mormon church) is now 10 million strong, with more than half of        its membership coming from outside the United States. More than 88 million copies of        The Book of Mormon have been printed, and it has been translated into more than 50        languages. Mormons in America tells the tumultuous story of this religious group,        from its humble origins in small-town New York State in 1830 to its present heyday.          Claudia and Richard Bushman introduce us to charismatic leaders like Joseph Smith        and Brigham Young, go deep behind Mormon rites and traditions, take us along the        adventurous trail of the Mormon pioneers into the West, evoke the momentous erection        of Salt Lake City in the desert, and draw us into the dozens of skirmishes, verbal        attacks, and court battles between Mormons and their neighbors, other religions, the        media, and the American government.
