THIS LAND

Zarahemla and the Nephite Nation

Having spent a lifetime searching for Book of Mormon lands in some 250 ruins throughout Mexico and Central and South America, I am  intrigued to return to Cumorah where it all ended.  May and Goble have compiled fascinating arguments for those lands being in North-east America, complete with compelling new evidence in the form of ancient mound-fortresses, fascinating native tales of white men in the area, and astounding artifacts-many never before published.    Anyone seeking to resolve the nagging mystery of Book of Mormon locations must consider this insightful book.

While scholars march in lockstep to a MesoAmerican Book of Mormon theory, Wayne May and Edwin Goble explore the archaeological riches of the Adena/Hopewell cultures in North America and find gold.

“This Land” presents a compelling argument that we need only check our own backyard to uncover evidence of Moroni’s earthen enclosures.  Besides a well-written, crash-course in archaeology, readers will also be intrigued with evidences of Hebraisms found in America.  This book is a valuable contribution to Book of Mormon research.
