Artículo de un diario de 1954 en el que se compara a José Smith con el profeta Mahoma.
“Mencionando un autentico retrato de José Smith—el Mahoma—el Review comenta: ‘Nunca vimos una cara en la que la mano del Cielo haya escrito de manera más legible bandido’. La cara era un índice fiel del carácter”.
