About This Book

The author compiles and summarizes official British government inquiry into Mormon missionary activity in England, juxtaposing sensational press accusations with recorded parliamentary questions and Home Office replies. Excerpts show MPs raising concerns about polygamy, alleged recruitment of young women for emigration, expulsions abroad, and proposals to restrict missionary activity, while the Home Secretary reports ongoing inquiries, states no official evidence of criminal practices in Britain, and notes legal and practical limits on exclusion or prosecution.
