Author: Venice Priddis
About Product:
The book is the Book of Mormon. The map is the modern map. As Latter-day Saints know, making the two meet is no easy task. Venice Priddis has achieved this in a remarkable piece of detection which produces a unique geographical setting. How could the Nephites be upon an “isle of the sea”? This is here explained by a map reproducing the land as apparently it was then – a map supported by powerful evidence. Thus is revealed the narrow neck of land, the pivotal point for all Book of Mormon geography. Soon the reader is accompanying explorers along the famed Inca roads, while a ready guide points out the ruins of ancient cities and their implications in terms of the Book of Mormon lands. In this way the Nephite and Jaredite lands and cities are defined: Nephi, Zarahemla, Bountiful, Cumorah, the Sidon River, the narrow pass, Desolation, Moron, Nehor, and dozens of others; major battlegrounds in the record; the mission fields of Alma and the sons of Mosiah – all this and much more is placed on the modern map, clearly and interestingly expressed and sustained by an impressive collection of data. The Book and the Map will not improve upon the sacred record, but it should certainly help to make the Book of Mormon story more understandable to the average reader. For this reason the average reader. For this reason the average reader as well as the student will want to keep a copy of this book near his Book of Mormon for easy reference.
