Joseph Smith, The Prophet
Joseph Smith--Who was he? What was he like? How did he accomplish so much in so little time? In this enlightening eight-lecture series, Dr. Truman G. Madsen presents a fascinating history of the first prophet of the Restoration. He offers deep insights into the life of this great man, adding his own witness of Joseph Smith's calling. Review Excerpts: "I first listened to these tapes on my mission in South Texas. I don't believe I've ever been so enthralled in anything before. Truman Madsen can relate the story of the Prophet so well that you really feel a close personal friend of Joseph's and have a hard time not tearing up at his martyrdom. I highly recommend it to anyone with intrest in knowing about this great man, aside from his acheivements and fame, and getting to know instead him from a personal point of view." --Matt MacPherson, Nevada, 2000 "I too first heard these tapes as a missionary. I bought them the week I came home and have listened to them on and off for the past 6 years. They are timeless; they never become dull and the listener will learn something new with each time around. Br. Madsen has also released a book version of this tape, which would be beneficial to buy as it has all of his footnotes and references mentioned in the tapes. Also, buy the sequel tapes which focus more on Joseph's teachings rather than his life; they're just as good." --David Winter, Kentucky, 2001 "Dr. Madsen is the foremost LDS authority on the life and times of the Prophet Joseph Smith. Those looking for a knowledgable, authoritative, intimate, and fun book on Joseph Smith should read this book. A must for all LDS book Collectors." --James J. Brown, 2003 "You can instantly tell after picking up this book the great love and devotion of the author, Truman G. Madsen, for the Latter-Day Prophet, Joseph Smith. This great knowledge and love really made this book a fantastic read that was hard to put down. The chapters are actually different lectures that he gave about the prophet which where later compiled into this book. Each lecture focused on a different aspect of Joseph Smith's life. Truman G. Madsen has a lot of knowledge about him as he told many stories that I had never even heard of regarding Joseph Smith. If you love Joseph Smith then this is a wonderful book to pick up. It will increase your love and understanding for the prophet." --James C Duckett, Nevada, 2004 Truman G. Madsen holds a Ph.D. from Harvard University and has taught in Religious Education and in philosophy at Brigham Young University. A popular speaker and writer and a recognized authority on Joseph Smith, he has been a director of the BYU Jerusalem Center and conducted tours of the Holy Land and of Church history sites.
