Mormonism Unveiled is John Doyle Lee's confessional expos of
malpractices in the Mormon Church, including his own role as an
assassin responsible for several murders. In chronicling his years
as a member of the church, Lee discusses how he came to meet and
associate with Joseph Smith: the founder and prophet of Mormonism.
The processes by which the charismatic Smith drew in followers is
catalogued. Personal habits, including the notorious practice of
polygamy where he would take multiple wives, are mentioned. Lee
himself partook enthusiastically in polygamy, taking a total of 19
wives and siring some 56 children. After Joseph Smith's death at
the hands of an angry mob in 1844, Brigham Young assumed control of
the Mormon Church. It was under Young that several of the most
controversial schemes associated with Mormonism entailed. For his
part John D. Lee became an enforcer, carrying out orders from
Brigham Young in appropriating belongings of fellow Mormons, such
as cattle from impoverished ranchers.
