From Adam-ondi-Ahman to the City of Enoch; from the restoration of the Gospel to building of the New Jerusalem in the latter-days—the “Heartland” of America has been the setting of sacred and significant events throughout human history.
By means of three hundred photographs, maps, works of art, scripture and commentary; the author introduces a growing body of evidence that suggests the very real possibility of a North American setting for The Book of Mormon.
Thirty-six scriptural prophecies and promises alternate between descriptions of the ancient Nephite land and a latter-day “Promised Land.” Following that premise, readers will carefully examine statements by the Prophet Joseph Smith regarding his views on Book of Mormon geography.
Newly emerging scientific information strengthens the assertion that large agrarian societies once flourished in North America at precisely the times of Jaredite and Nephite cultures. This research, conducted mostly by non-LDS scientists is revealing a remarkable panorama of culture, achievement and destruction among these ancient peoples.
The research here compiled spans the scope of archaeology, anthropology, architecture, fortifications, trade, religion, metallurgy, DNA, horticulture, transportation–by sea and by land, geographic topologies, building materials, astronomical alignments, mythology and much more.
How large (or small) were the lands of the Book of Mormon?
You will see a comparison between the two prevailing Book of Mormon geography theories (Heartland and Mesoamerica) with the route thought to have been taken by Lehi’s family down the Saudi Arabian peninsula.
How long did it take Lehi’s family to travel to the land Bountiful?
How far was that journey in comparison with the overall size of proposed Book of Mormon lands in the Americas?
How limited were Book of Mormon lands according to the text?
How far did Book of Mormon peoples spread upon their lands?
Has Lehi’s ocean voyage now been discovered and substantiated?
Once you see this presentation you’ll be asking, “Why isn’t this front page news!” For the first time since the coming forth of the Book of Mormon there is direct, incontrovertible evidence supporting the Book of Mormon’s claim of a voyage from the Saudi Arabian peninsula to the Americas. A recently completed oceanic expedition in a 600 B.C. wooden sailing ship has provided astounding new understandings for Lehi’s voyage to the Americas. It was patterned after remnants of ancient Phoenician ships, known to have made the first circumnavigations of Africa in the same era as Lehi’s voyage. Could there be any correlations?
What kind of ship did Nephi build and how long did it take to build it?
What time of year did they leave?
Which direction did they sail?
What happened along the voyage?
How long would the voyage have taken?
When would they have arrived on the Promised Land?
What caused the destruction at the time of Christ? Was it caused by a volcanic eruption as has been speculated by some Book of Mormon geography scholars, or is there another explanation? Amazing new research has uncovered incredible parallels between the eye-witness accounts of the Book of Mormon prophets and the eye-witness observations of those who suffered through a sequence of earthquakes in the heartland of America in 1811 and 1812. Together we will compare the scriptural account with the History Channels Earthquake in the Heartland documentary and authoritative accounts by those who were there! It is nothing short of amazing.
What textual evidence exists that the destruction was volcanic in nature?
How was the destruction described by the ancient prophets?
What caused the three days of darkness?
When did the Nephites gather at the temple in Bountiful/
Why couldn’t some Nephites light fires, while other Nephite cities were entirely burned?
Did an event similar to that witnessed in 1811-1812 occur near the time of Christ?
Is there evidence for Book of Mormon metallurgy and swords?
You will be treated to witnessing artifacts recovered from archaeological excavations proving the use of gold, copper, silver, lead and even iron and steel, just as claimed by the prophets of the Book of Mormon. What about swords? You will read accounts by the first settlers to the “Heartland” region of just such finds. What about smelting? You’ll learn of the new book by William Conner in which he uncovers evidence for ancient iron and copper smelting in the Ohio River valley, and see for yourself the evidence from Hopewell mounds from which much of this evidence has come forth.
Are there ores of gold, silver, copper and iron in the Heartland of North America?
Is there any evidence for metal smelting anciently?
What artifacts exist that show ancient metallurgy?
How was Laban's sword described?
Did Nephites make similar swords?
Has any iron or steel swords been recovered in America's Heartland?
Hebrew in the Heartland!
One of the most profound research involves the recent petrographic examination, using scattering electron microscopy (SEM), of a stone recovered by the Smithsonian Institute in an official archaeological dig in 1889 in Tennessee. It has undergone rigorous scientific examination and has now been verified and authenticated by secular non-Mormon sources to be an ancient form of Hebrew! Fox News commentator Glenn Beck exclaimed he was “blown away” by this incredible new research and you will be “blown away” by the translation of the stones inscription! This level of evidence is unprecedented and has never been found anywhere outside of the Heartland Model Geography. Every member of the Church should know about this finding because of its profound importance in supporting the claims of the Book of Mormon. You don't want to miss this presentation and information as it is the first ever recorded instance, since the coming forth of the Book of Mormon, of Hebrew language dating into Book of Mormon time frames being found anywhere in the America’s. The fact that is was found in a Hopewell burial mound in America’s heartland and dates squarely into Book of Mormon time frames makes it one of the most profound evidences in support of the Book of Mormon that has ever been found. Come learn more at this conference!
What languages were used by Book of Mormon prophets and people?
Is there any evidence of these languages in ancient North America?
Are there indications of the use of these languages during Book of Mormon time frames?
What evidence exists of Hebrew or Egyptian written language in America's Heartland?

Also included it the new documentary film, featured on Glenn Beck!
The Lost Civilizations of North America is a powerful and exciting new documentary film that provides answers to the questions of why Americans have never heard of the tremendous and highly advanced civilizations that existed anciently in North America and how theories of their origins have been disregarded and their legacy wantonly destroyed out of place and time by scientific and political agendas.
Award winning filmmaker Rick Stout in corroboration with producers Steve Smoot and Barry McLerran have produced one of the most powerful documentary films ever produced about the ancient Hopewell civilization that existed near the time of Christ in North America.
Was there a highly advanced civilization in North America anciently?
Why has information about it been hidden for centuries?
We have anxiously awaited the re-release of this paradigm shattering new documentary. With more than a dozen non-LDS archaeologists, anthropologists, museum directors, geneticists, historians and Native Americans, The Lost Civilizations of North America is an incredibly powerful and compelling film that finally answers the question of why most Americans have never heard about the tremendous, highly advanced civilization that once existed anciently on the North American continent and why theories about its origins have been deliberately and systematically erased from American history. Few know about these ancient peoples who had a written language (Hebrew), built roads, used metals to make headplates and breastplates, and knew mathematics and astronomy corresponding with Egyptians and Mediterranean peoples. Most astoundingly, they also had DNA which also links them with these Old World populations as well.
Take a moment and watch the video trailer of this fundamentally important film for all those interested in learning about and finding evidences for the Book of Mormon as a literal historical record of real people, places and events. You will be astounded at the level of new evidences that exist in support of its truthfulness!
Due to overwhelming demand, we have brought back this groundbreaking DVD that started it all! DNA Evidence for Book of Mormon Geography is the powerful introduction to what is now recognized as the "Heartland Model" geography that has caused a "swelling movement" within LDS Church membership. Over 4 hours of live presentation will help you learn why the Book of Mormon may have occurred right in America's heartland!
H. Verlan Andersen was the father of twelve children and was called as a General Authority by President Ezra Taft Benson. He passed away in 1992 but left a wonderful legacy of family and writings on the proper role of government. He was also a personal friend of the prophet and spoke with him often about the importance of this book. He was a champion of the Book of Mormon as an inspired book and the Constitution as an inspired document. This recently re-released book from 1975 is now again available.
Our goal it to make this exciting, newly discovered information available to as many as possible that demonstrates the incredible level of evidence supporting the Book of Mormon which are being discovered in America's heartland. The evidence continues to build and this research has become a "swelling movement" within the Church. Because of this growth we need your help.

The key to understanding the deep, spiritual connections between Heaven and America is found in an ancient promise from the God who created this nation. It is found in The American Covenant. Volume I explores the gospel-rich history of America from the discovery through the Revolution. Volume II takes the reader through the making of the Constitution, through the tragedy of the Civil War, and on to the present day.
Timothy Ballard Bio: Available HERE.
REVIEWS:
“An absorbing read into the nature of the American Covenant, how the world’s history, with its many philosophical and religious movements, serves to inform and sometimes define the Restoration that crowns the Covenant. This book compels honest scholars to open their minds and hearts to the cumulative effect of history on the Restoration.... Rather than being some new religion revealed by an angel and taught by a prophet, Mormonism is actually the crowning achievement of a long historical record. By rereading American history in light of the Restoration, Ballard has given readers a clear path to follow in understanding just how God has guided history, resulting in the ushering in of the Dispensation of the Fullness of Times.”
-Jeffrey Needle, Book Review Editor, The Association for Mormon Letters
“Tim Ballard’s The American Covenant is an inspiring and thought-provoking work that will cause Latter-day Saints to think more profoundly about their role in America’s destiny, and better understand America’s place in God’s plan. The American Covenant will stir any God-fearing patriot to reflect anew on the divine origin and destiny of this remarkable nation.”
-Mayor Mike Winder, author of Presidents and Prophets: The Story of America’s Presidents and the LDS Church.

This exciting new book of nearly 300 pages provides incredible new validation to many of the claims made in the Book of Mormon, many thought by mainstream archaeologists to be non-existent. William (Bill) Conner has spent more time on actual archaeological sites than many “professional” archaeologists. He continues to be driven by the new and evolving evidence that demonstrates ancient America did indeed have smelting technology that pre-dates the arrival of Columbus to the Americas. Each find is fully documented and referenced with a fresh, yet authoritative style of research and writing.
You will find this compelling work provides a new aspect of evidence for the Book of Mormon, unprecedented in any proposed lands outside of America’s heartland. Within its pages are found photos of a molten/cast iron axe head, preserved within its “mold” at a well known Hopewell site. Also uncovered is a 62 pound bar of iron that was formed within the air-duct of the iron furnace where it was found in 1948 along Deer Creek in Ross County Ohio (within the Arledge Mound - a Hopewell mound). See the remains of an ancient mold, which by all appearances could have been used in the making of iron swords! Within an 8 inch portion of a broken mold lies a grooved channel. This 2-2 1/2 inch by ¼ inch deep groove could have easily been used to for sword building.
Bill also discusses the nature of archaeology today and how his findings have been ignored, covered up or destroyed through archaeological dogma. For a quarter century, Bill has attempted to recruit trained archaeologists to employ scientific methods and studies in order to fully document his findings. Due to the fear of reprisal (from the very archaeological community that should welcome this new evidence) Bill’s discoveries have been largely ignored by those who hold the keys to bring this evidence to light, proving this technology was being employed prior to the arrival of the Spaniards in America. These ancient people were as advanced as any of their time-anywhere in the world. They were skilled in metal technologies and language. They built massive cities and roads. These early Amiercans also had knowledge of astronomy, mathematics and built one of the greatest civilizations on earth. Is it possible they are what remain of the Nephites spoken of in the Book of Mormon? We invite you to read and ponder this exciting book and discover this ancient people again in a new light, then…decide for yourself!
The Earthquake America Forgot;
2,000 Temblors in Five Months
by Dr. David Stewart & Dr. Ray Knox
- The Mississippi River Ran Backwards
- Five Whole Towns Disappeared
- People Were Swallowed Alive
And It Will Happen Again!
This book tells of the observed destruction that occurred in 1811 and 1812
along the New Madrid Seismic Zone (NMSZ) roughly between St. Louis, MO
and Memphis, TN. Some of the most mind-blowing accounts of destruction
are described in detail within the pages of this book. One of the most profound
observations by those who witnessed these events have to do with a strange
darkness that ensued after each earthquake shock. They wrote of three days
of this darkness wherein the "sun, moon and stars were concealed" by a "dense
black cloud of vapor" that "overshadowed the land." Did a similar event happen
near the time of Christ? Wait until you see the results of the research of
paleoseismologist Martitia Tuttle from the History Channel documentary
Earthquake in the Heartland!
The work by Henrietta Mertz on what became known as the "Mark of the Michigan Mound Builders" is continued with new information by Ancient American publisher Wayne N. May.

This landmark documentary by American Public Television unearth's one of the most fascinating cultures in ancient North America.
This documentary is fantastic with stunning aerial photographs of many of the more famous mound sites and information on Hopewell artifacts and an amazing road that was built by the Hopewell people over 60 miles long....and 200 feet wide, straight and level, just like it reads in the Book of Mormon! See 3 Nephi 6:8 and 8:13.
Also information on how the Hopewell used Lunar Cycles, just like the Nephites did as stated in the Book of Mormon (see Onmi 1:21).
Finally, take a look at the chiefs in the video....notice the color of their skin. They look European, just as prophesied in the Book of Mormon in 2 Nephi 30:6 (original edition) and in 3 Nephi 2:15.
Book of Mormon Archaeology in North America is a powerful DVD presentation done by author and publisher Wayne N. May of Ancient American Magazine. Correlations in North America between the Jaredites and Nephites of the Book of Mormon and two archaeologically known civilizations that parallel those timelines, known as the Adena and Hopewell or Mound Builder people. The material presented is supported by Book of Mormon passages and the Doctrine and Covenants, along with quotes from Joseph Smith and Native American oral histories. The DVD is 2 hours in length and offers in depth information that supports the validity of the Book of Mormon as an ancient historical text.
Could the destruction described by ancient prophets in the Book of Mormon near the time of Christ be explained by an event similarly described in 1811 and 1812 by those who endured its wrath near New Madrid, Missouri…the heartland of America?
The largest earthquake series historically recorded in North America occurred on a seismically active fault stretching roughly 160 miles from Nashville, Tennessee to St. Louis, Missouri. The remarkable correlations between this earthquake sequence and that of the Book of Mormon destruction at the time of Christ provide evidence that such an event would produce all of the observations described in the Book of Mormon. Witnesses endured over 2,000 earthquakes, with three being 8.0 magnitude or stronger, that rocked the eastern half of the United States over the course of 5 months.
This sequence of earthquakes caused bizarre phenomena to occur such as the Mississippi river to flow backwards, entire regions were buried under sand 15-20 feet deep from “sand geysers,”chasms opened up in the earth, foul vapors were released and 10 new lakes formed… in just a few hours. No earthquake sequence has lasted so long, produced so many shocks, nor created such astonishing land surface phenomena. The story? Amazing. The impact? Profound.
The Book of Mormon
The Book of Mormon prophets recorded the catastrophic events leading up to Christ’s coming. They wrote of “a great storm” with “darkness” for three days. They describe a “terrible tempest“ and “sharp lightnings” which “did shake the whole earth.” Cities did “sink into the depths of the sea” in some places while “earth was carried up upon the city” in others. The “whole face of the land was changed,” as their highways were “broken up.” “Seam and cracks” opened in the earth, cities were “sunk” and “buried,”as others were “burned with fire.” Christ declared that “waters have I caused to come up” from the earth and the “damage thereof was exceedingly great” sufficient to warrant the statement that “the face of the earth was deformed.” What destructive force could explain all of these eye-witness observations and Christ’s descriptions in the heartland of America? There are no volcanos in this area. What, then, could cause it?
No Book of Mormon passage mentions volcanoes or a volcanic eruption. This has been assumed as a possible explanation for three days of darkness caused by volcanic ash blackout. What other natural phenomena could produce this effect? We know that this darkness was not a world-wide event because other literate cultures of the time make no mention of it. That being the case, it must have been a more localized event, and there is a strong candidate right in the heartland of America. It is called the New Madrid fault system and it lies directly under this proposed geography.
The History channel has released a documentary called "Earthquake in the Heartland,” part of their mega-disaster series that describes in detail this fateful event in the lives of the frontier townspeople and the Native Americans who lived in this region. The documentary describes the destruction that happened during this event sequence. Eyewitness accounts described nearly continuous motion of the earth, foul vapors, 'earthquake lights', and huge fissures that opened in the ground, swallowing homes and cattle. The correlations that can be drawn from this documentary and subsequent research, coinciding with the Book of Mormon, are indeed profound.
The small town of New Madrid, Missouri, shown by the arrow on the map above, was completely destroyed during the 1811-1812 earthquakes. The town of Little Prairie was flooded and the town evacuated. Indian villages were destroyed as a 30 foot wall of water went rushing upriver following upheaval of land that blocked the river channel.
From the map above it is easy to see how a similar event would have affected the Hopewell civilization. This was literally under their feet. 1811 and 1812 earthquakes rang church bells in Boston, Massachusetts and toppled a steeple in Charleston, North Carolina, thousands of miles from the epicenter.
In their book, The Earthquake America Forgot, Dr. David Stewart and Dr. Ray Knox assembled eyewitness accounts, newspaper articles, personal journals and correspondence, as well as on location research, to give the most detailed information available about this event. Their accounts speak of the horrors of those who lived through these events and believed they were suffering the wrath of God. One aspect not discussed in the History Channel documentary was anything that might provide clues about how earthquakes could cause three days of darkness, however in their book is a section on “Earthquake Smog.” Several eye-witness accounts describe such a phenomenon.
Said Eliza Bryan, later a school teacher in New Madrid, of her experience, “My maw tried to light the lamps, but the darkness was so dense they didn’t help at all.” She spoke of “the awful darkness of the atmosphere” during some of the daylight shocks. Godfrey LeSieur said that following the earthquake events “a dense black cloud of vapor overshadowed the land.” Another New Madrid resident described it as “the air would e clear at first, but in five minutes it would become very black, and this darkness returned at each successive shock.” “A vapor seemed to impregnate the atmosphere, had a disagreeable smell, and produce difficulty of respiration,’ wrote another. A minister living near Cape Girardeau reported that from December 16 until December 19, a period of 3-4 days time, “the sun, moon, and stars were concealed by a mist and fog which dropped like a heavy dew.” The naturalist, John James Audubon observed what may have been the same phenomenon from a bluff across the Kentucky border on January 23, 1812 when one of the largest earthquakes hit. He wrote, “I saw a sudden and strange darkness rising from the western horizon and heard what I imagined to be the distant rumbling of a violent tornado.”
Scientists do not know what would cause such strange spectacles, but they do not doubt the many observations were real. A similar event near the time of Christ could easily have been what the ancient Book of Mormon witnesses described.
Is evolution the most dangerous anti-Christian influence that we face? Some have asserted that we have received very little instruction on evolution and its influence on society. Perhaps, they say, there are but a few statements for and against, proving that the Leadership of the Church often expressed opinions which were inaccurate in many cases. The video Creation and Evolution: A Witness of Prophets dispels these unfounded expressions. The video and accompanying resources present documented evidence that at least 12 Presidents of the Church and many apostles have spoken clearly and repeatedly on this subject, condemning it as detrimental to faith. The Prophets have warned against figurative interpretations of scripture that attempt to harmonize false scientific theories with the word of God. While nearly all of the Presidents of the Church have condemned evolution, not one of them has endorsed or even spoken favorably about evolution . For nearly two hundred years modern day Prophets have denounced and condemned evolution with a uniform voice. Men from different times with different backgrounds, personalities and experiences, but the same source of revelation provide a testimony to the inspiration and perfect unity that comes from following the Spirit of God. The video Creation and Evolution: A Witness of Prophets and its accompanying resources present information previously unknown by many in the general Church membership. Learn how President Brigham Young founded Brigham Young Academy, forerunner of BYU, to combat the harmful influences of Darwinian evolution. Gain knowledge of the background behind the official announcements made by two First Presidencies announcing the official position of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints that refute the theory of evolution.

From the back cover... " Two thousand years ago a mysterious white man walked from tribe to tribe among the American Nations. He came to Peru from the Pacific, He traveled through South and Central America, among the Mayans, into Mexico and all of North America, then back to ancient Tula, from whence he departed across the Atlantic to the land of his origin. Who was this white Prophet who spoke a thousand languages, healed the sick, raised the dead, and taught in the same words as Jesus Himself?
These are true Indian legends, gathered during twenty-five years of research by L. Taylor Hansen, archaeologist, from many different tribes all over the Americas. By consulting museums, libraries and experts on folklore, it has been possible to correlate the findings into this fascinating book, backup up by the spades of the diggers into ancient ruins, and by all the sciences with which L. Taylor Hansen is familiar. This is a book that will back up the New Testament of the East, with the Christian Indian legends of the West. In this book is proof that the Savior came not only to one continent, but to all the world. This book will strengthen your faiths as no other could!"
L. Taylor Hansen holds her Masters Degree in Archaeology, Anthropology and Geology from Stanford University. She is an authority on the Indians of North and South America, having studied among them for thirty years; and is also an expert Egyptologist, having researched many years in North Africa.

This book fills an important need -- that of helping Latter-day Saints understand the Constitution as written by the Framers, whom the Lord described as "wise men whom I raised up unto this very purpose." It shows that instaed of being outmoded the Constitution is the basis of America's freedom and prosperity.
For many years Latter-day Saints have been aware of a prophecy of Joseph Smith that the Constitution would be damaged to the point of near destruction, and that if it is saved, they would play a vital role in saving it.
The first part of that prophecy is being fulfilled. The Constitution has been greatly distorted to accommodate beliefs incompatible with those of the inspired Framers.
In recent years some Church members have felt that Joseph Smith's prophecy no longer applies. Because of widespread erroneous teachings, they have been led to believe that the battered Constitution is the way it should be.
This book explains those erroneous teachings and gives its readers a sound understanding of government in general, and the American constitutional system in particular. It is written interestingly and clearly so that it can be read and understood by the lay person. While oriented to members of the Mormon Church to help them fulfill the second part of Joseph Smith's prophecy, it should be of value to all who sincerely desire freedom and prosperity. 212pp

Her profound knowledge of Biblical marriage traditions and covenants encompasses principles as diverse as Sabbath observance, the Atonement, temple worship, and missionary work. It literally begins with Adam and ends with ‘Zion.’ She will be presenting aspects of her many years of research on the subject through introduction to her published work on the subject titled “Beloved Bridegroom: Finding Christ in Ancient Jewish Marriage and Family Customs,” now in its 10th printing
Heroes of the Fallen is set after a golden age of peace, that lasted almost three hundred years. War is now coming to Zarahemla. Men beat their plowshares into swords or call vainly to pagan gods for answers, all the while forgetting that which could deliver them.
Stand alongside daring heroes with swords bared against sinister villains, never knowing which will fall—Captain Amaron and his Ten Scouts, Zelph the White Lamanite, or Anathoth the Ishmaelite General, agonizingly loyal to the despised King of Tullan—all must face the chillingly evil Gadianton Master Akish-Antum and his numerous followers.
Witness the plans of mighty kings and lowly thieves. See the dreams of Bethia, a prophet's daughter, as she runs away from home seeking independence, only to find confusion and wickedness in a land of war.
Heroes of the Fallen is filled with tragedy and triumph. It echoes universal themes of mankind: fear and courage, faith versus doubt, hunger for power and love, and sacrifice for the greater good. Intensely researched for reality and fantastically dreamt up for imagination, Heroes of the Fallen is a literary work of art, presenting revolutionary viewpoints in a cross-genre's ancient American landscape.
Review by Professor Robert J. Mathews, former professor of Ancient Scripture and Dean of Religious Education, BYU
"A recent publication, The Name of God from the Sinai to the American Southwest, is a detailed comparison of language forms and religious concepts found in the ancient inscriptions of the people on two continents separated by great distance with an ocean in between. The title states the scope of the study; Inscriptions bearing the same name for God in ancient Hebrew or Semitic-type script in the widely distant lands of the Middle East and the American Southwest-two different hemispheres. The similarity in language and deistic belief suggests that the ancient American culture has a close tie and origin to the older Hebrew culture.
The research of Harris and Hone is undergirded by hundreds of examples gathered on both sides of the ocean, and their conclusions that the ancient Americans had linguistic and religious ties with the Middle East, seems well founded."
Foreward by Dr. Jon R. Polansky, Research Scientist, Associate Professor, University of California, San Francisco; Editor ESOP [Epigraphic Society Occasional Publications
"The proposal by Dr. Harris and Dann Hone of script-like elements in petroglyphs that appear related to Proto-Sinaitic both in form and content, if verified by the scholarly attention it deserves, represents a major new discovery with important implications for both 'Old World' and 'New World' cultures. The ideas presented are based on detailed comparisons and on an honest attempt to evaluate probable meanings, and should not be dismissed out-of-hand by archaeologist and linguists, because they disagree with `established' opinion concerning an isolated development of pre-Columbian American cultures.
Dr. Harris has been studying southwestern petroglyphs for many years in relation to indigenous cultures, and his scholarship in this area received general acceptance. In the early years (of this project) he began to validate the concept of an Egyptian hieroglyphic content in certain petroglyph panels. Since the proposed hieroglyphics appeared to fit into the accompanying depiction's on the panels of petroglyphs being examined, this find left the door open to a consideration of potential script-like elements.
The publication of, The Name of God From the Sinai to the American Southwest, presents essential aspects of the evidence and rationale developed by Harris and Hone concerning what they think should best be termed Proto-Canaanite from both American and Near Eastern sites.
This publication. was postponed until after several years of effort were expended to obtain critical appraisals of the basic data. This included evaluations of associated symbolism and quantitative assessments of the frequencies of letter forms at SW American sites and sites in the Negev of Israel.
While it is clear that a final understanding of these parallels will benefit from additional scholarly interchanges and a consideration of alternatives, as the authors readily admit, it is appropriate to have the benefit of their opinions (in this and other planned publications) prior to the lively exchanges this work should engender. Dr. Harris has put forward an initial corpus of material, from which the reader can make judgments about both the methods of inquiry and the author's waking hypotheses. These of course can be tested, expanded, and corrected where necessary.
I have observed that both Jim Harris and Dann Hone. respond positively to a critical and scholarly scientific process. I hope that the potential contributions of this work are evaluated on such a basis, without suffering unduly from biases imposed by archaeological pre-conceptions or religious doctrines. If the validity of specific proposals are assessed in an unbiased way (for example, using what can be deduced from trans-cultural aspects of symbolism and rigorous linguistic approaches), then the value of this interesting work to the individual development of cultures as well as to understand the spread of information in the ancient world, can best be considered."
In 1787, the United States boldly stepped forward in the glorious light provided by their unique new constitution. The confidence of the citizenry blossomed. The economy expanded in the assurance that one’s labor was one’s own. The nation became invigorated. The transformation was miraculous! The nations of the world stood in awe of the newfound strength and hope of this free land.
In the twenty-first century, America is in need of a miracle. The United States Constitution is again that miracle. It must be applied as vigorously and purely as it was in the beginning. Today’s national challenges can be traced to a divergence from the original intent put forth in the United States Constitution. Statesmen of the caliber of the American founders must be raised up. The timeless wisdom that established the United States must again be vigorously applied. The foundational Americanist principles must be learned, understood, and embraced. The results will be as they were in the beginning. America may become again the freest, most prosperous, most respected, and happiest nation on earth. It is the intention of this book and accompanying lecture series to begin that restoration.
"Out of Captivity tells the story of the Reformation in Europe—especially as it relates to England—including the Pilgrims’ quest for religious freedom and the Puritans’ desire to follow Christ. This story of sacrifice is a saga of courage amid centuries of religious upheaval. It is a story filled with timeless examples of the love of God, even during the darkest time of the Dark Ages, all in preparation for the restoration of the gospel in the latter days. The details of each character portrayed in Out of Captivity create a unique story that is a must reading for patriotic Latter-day Saints. Hats off to Allen for researching and writing such a marvelous work!"
--Susan Easton Black, Ph.D.
Professor of Church History, Brigham Young University
"This book, Out of Captivity, reflects a detailed and well-researched look at the stirrings of men and women in Europe and England who sought religious freedom. As a documentary filmmaker, I have been interested in the detail and insight of this story. It has helped me on two different films that I am producing for PBS Television. My hat is off to Charles W. Allen, who has tackled this story with a passion, born of blood heritage as well as from a spiritual quest to bring these details to light. It truly is a remarkable piece of work, especially for those who value the prologue to the restoration of the gospel of Jesus Christ."
--Lee Groberg, Groberg Communications
"My fellow Americans. We live in a great and glorious land. We have been the beneficiaries of great blessings from heaven. We must not ever forget the blessings that have been bestowed upon us. Our nation is still in deep need of the help of the Almight. We need His inspiration. We need His guidance. We need His protection. When we as people not only desire to do His will, but determine we will do it, then we can expect that help from God...." --Ezra Taft Benson
"We are forgetting God, whose commandments we have put aside and obey not. In all too many ways we have substituted human sophistry for the wisdom of the Almighty...The inspired men who wrote our Constitution were raised up by the God of heaven 'unto this very purpose.' Can we expect peace and prosperity, harmony and goodwill while turning our backs on the source of our strength?" -- Gordon B. Hinckley
"In a real way, each generation of Americans has its chance to re-ratify the Constitution. We can do this by abiding by its principles and by leaving our own legacy to posterity; likewise, by both preserving our rights and filling our responsibilities. Otherwise, expressions of patriotism are no more than verbal veneration without actual emulation!" -- Neal A. Maxwell
The Mystic Symbol: Mark of the Michigan Mound Builders was written by attorney Henriette Mertz over the course of 30 years of research into ancient artifacts from the Ohio and Mississippi river valleys numbering into the tens of thousands and found in mounds and caves that have astounding Judeo-Hebrew and Phoenician characters and writing depicting biblical stories, and deity being crucified on a cross! These highly controvesial stones, copper and slate plates, and implements have been summarily dismissed as 'fakes' and 'forgeries' by archaeologists for the sole reason that they 'could not exist, therefore, they don't'. When you read this book, you will wonder how this information has been allowed to remain hidden for so long...until now.
The book has 275 pages of well researched and documented information as well as dozens of photographs of some amazing artifacts that are of special interest to those who take the inspired words of the Book of Mormon to be an actual historical document.

Rhett Stephen James in the Foreword of The Eternal Perspective of Zion’s Camp states;
“James L. Bradley brings the subject of his book the tradition of the historian who leaves the library and ivory tower, combing pure document research with on-site examination and exploration of the places about which he writes. For more than thirty years, Mr. Bradley has taught the subject, has poked his way through forests and hills, has traveled off the beaten track to find and feel Zion’s Camp history. No historian alive today knows the terrain of Zion’s Camp better than Jim Bradley.”
