Abstract

This two-part series defends the Book of Mormon against the charge that it cannot be God-inspired since its literary merits are so poor. Brookbank believes that its poor literary style supports its claim even more since good style cannot be had from translating Egyptian hieroglyphics. The first part begins the series.
