June 25, 0013 12:00 AM
It's been nearly thirty years since FARMS published John L. Sorenson's landmark book, An Ancient American Setting for the Book of Mormon. Since then, Sorenson has contributed more titles and articles arguing for a particular ancient geographical and cultural setting for the Book of Mormon, and the emeritus professor of anthropology at BYU has continued his research up to the present. The Maxwell Institute is gearing up for the release of Sorenson's magnum opus, Mormon's Codex, slated for publication later this year. To celebrate its publication, the Institute's Matthew Roper will be highlighting excerpts from Mormon's Codex in the coming months.
