Under the Banner of Heaven: A Story of Violent Faith

This was a very interesting read. I learned a lot about LDS history and was very entertained. If you don't know much about mormonism, its origin and teachings, let me tell you, it's pretty wild. The book was hard to follow at times, since it cuts from one timeline to another quite often, and expects the reader to remember a lot of names, but in general it's well written. After giving you a lot of backstory on the church, it goes pretty deeply into the Lafferty murders. It is very sad to see how far an extremist approach can go, to the point of doing the unimaginable. The author managed to interview one of the culprits, making for an extremely interesting and baffling telling of the crime and what led up to it.
