Full title is "IN SEARCH OF CUMORAH: New Evidences for the Book of Mormon from Ancient Mexico". Book was written by David A. Palmer.
The Hill Cumorah figures prominently in Book of Mormon history. Two civilizations were destroyed there, and the prophet Mormon hid a large collection of ancient records in that hill. A great deal of the Book of Mormon history is tied in some way to the geography of the Hill Cumorah. Where, then, do we go to find it? A standard response might be that it is located near Palmyra, New York. Is this presumption correct? Certainly there is a hill by the same name in that location, the hill where Joseph Smith received a set of metal plates from the Angel Moroni. How did the New York hill come to be named "Cumorah," and why have many authors equated it with the Book of Mormon hill?
This book presents the theory that there are two Cumorahs. The original Cumorah, which relates to Book of Mormon history, will be called "Mormon's Cumorah" because Mormon hid there the large Nephite record library. A location for Mormon's Cumorah in the state of Veracruz, Mexico is proposed and will be defended. The hill in New York State will be called "Moroni's Cumorah," since Moroni placed a small set of plates there for eventual delivery to Joseph Smith. These locations of these two hills are shown on the map.
Book is hardcover in good condition, no writing or underlining in the body of the book. No dustjacket
Very, Very interesting, especially if you are interested in Book of Mormon Archaeology.
