Memoirs Of My Day: In And Out Of Mormondom (1887) (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781104883621)

Memoirs Of My Day: In And Out Of Mormondom is a book written by Charles W. Hemenway and published in 1887. The book is a personal account of the author's experiences with the Mormon religion and his eventual departure from it. Hemenway was born and raised in Vermont, but he converted to Mormonism in his early twenties and moved to Utah to live among the Mormon community. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which covers a different aspect of Hemenway's life as a Mormon. He discusses his conversion, his experiences living in Utah, his interactions with Mormon leaders and members, and his eventual disillusionment with the religion. Hemenway provides detailed descriptions of Mormon beliefs, practices, and customs, as well as the political and social climate in Utah during the 19th century. Throughout the book, Hemenway reflects on the reasons why he ultimately decided to leave the Mormon church. He discusses the contradictions he saw between the teachings of the church and the behavior of its leaders, as well as his growing discomfort with the way the church was using its power and influence. Memoirs Of My Day: In And Out Of Mormondom provides a unique perspective on the history of the Mormon church and the experiences of its members during the 19th century. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of Mormonism or the religious and social movements of the 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
