I had known about and read -off and on -the Book of Mormon for several years and always wondered where it REALLY came from.Finally I feel I know! I could not buy the belief it came from a stack of 'Gold Plates'(which an angel later took away!) found in a hill in N.Y.and that former 'money digger/occultist,' Joseph Smith Jr.'stared into his 'old white hat' for long hours at a time with a 'sear stone' inside the hat,as per what Book of Mormon witness David Whitmer said,and then Smith called off the 'Reformed Egyptian'(NO such language Egyptologists all say!)-in English- to a scribe/s over a period of several months! Sorry,but this detailed and well documented work,Who Really Wrote the BOM makes much more sense!

The 2005 'Enigma' book is the only in-print report on the so-called Solomon Spalding authorship claims for the Book of Mormon. While the book offers extensive documentation of those claims, it probably will not be widely accepted as 'proof' of the Book of Mormon being a fraud purpetrated by Sidney Rigdon and Joseph Smith. However, if the reader can get past the authors' sometimes overly detailed writing style, this book offers a very interesting 'alternative' explanation for Mormon origins and for the very first LDS scriptures. -- worth reading

This book is absolutely devastating to the Mormon Church. It offers proof-positive that the 'Book of Mormon' is a hoax and a fraud. A must read!

This book is totaly and hundred percent wrong, if you have a brain you will not read this false and stupid book. People need to spend their time better, rather than tiring down other people's beliefs!

The historical evidence is mostly recalled conversation from 40+ years earlier. If there were any 'solid' evidence in this book it would have certainly produced larger waves rather than the tiny ripples only substantial to the ignorant and lazy 'seekers of truth.' The authors have provided an excellent alternative to the authorship behind the Book of Mormon. There really isn't much more than dandruff of historical hearsay which the authors do a great job of offering a plausible explanation with what little they have. Well organized book with lots of detail. Not significant at all except for the obsessed conspiracy theorist caught up in the losing arms race against the LDS scholars. Although the LDS scholars evidence is more significant, it still doesn't 'prove' the Joseph Smith story. Certainly the religious folk and the Bible are correct in saying 'But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because the are spiritually discerned. '1 Cor 2:14''
