""The Mormon Prophet and His Harem"" is a book written by Mrs. C. V. Waite that provides an in-depth and authentic history of Brigham Young, the second president of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church). The book details Young's numerous wives and children, including their names, ages, and relationships to each other. It also explores the polygamous lifestyle of the Mormon leader and his followers, as well as the controversies and scandals surrounding the practice. The book is a fascinating and informative read for anyone interested in the history of the LDS Church and the life of its most prominent leader.1868. From the Preface: No apology is offered for presenting to the public the only authentic account of Brigham Young, of his polygamous family, and of that complicated and incongruous system of social and political machinery, called Mormonism. The chief interest of the work, however, with a large class of readers, will doubtless consist in the information it contains, relative to the family and social relations of the celebrated Mormon leader. These, and all other facts contained in this volume, may be relied upon as true, and many of them are now published for the first time. The subject of polygamy is treated thoroughly, and as dispassionately as the writer's utter abhorrence of the system will permit. A residence of two years in the midst of this state of society, could not fail to afford me a tolerably good view of its inside workings, and this view I have presented to my readers.
