Under the Banner of Heaven


Book Description

NATIONAL BESTSELLER • From the author of Into the Wild and Into Thin Air, this extraordinary work of investigative journalism takes readers inside America’s isolated Mormon Fundamentalist communities. • Now an acclaimed FX limited series streaming on HULU. “Fantastic.... Right up there with In Cold Blood and The Executioner’s Song.” —San Francisco Chronicle Defying both civil authorities and the Mormon establishment in Salt Lake City, the renegade leaders of these Taliban-like theocracies are zealots who answer only to God; some 40,000 people still practice polygamy in these communities. At the core of Krakauer’s book are brothers Ron and Dan Lafferty, who insist they received a commandment from God to kill a blameless woman and her baby girl. Beginning with a meticulously researched account of this appalling double murder, Krakauer constructs a multi-layered, bone-chilling narrative of messianic delusion, polygamy, savage violence, and unyielding faith. Along the way he uncovers a shadowy offshoot of America’s fastest growing religion, and raises provocative questions about the nature of religious belief.

The newly approved translation of the readings for weekday Masses is now available to presiders, preachers and faithful alike in a convenient one-volume study edition. LTP's study edition of the Weekday Lectionary, although not intended for use in the liturgy, offers many of the same features as its beautiful ritual volumes. The efficient two-column layout of the readings allows the user to view the first and gospel readings and the responsorial psalm together, with few page turns. The large, clear type--the same size as that found in LTP's Sunday Lectionary study edition--is easy to read, and the book's lieflat binding allows it to remain open to the correct page while the user consults other resources and takes notes for homilies and study groups. Those who attend daily Mass regularly will want a copy of this volume for their own prayerful preparation, as will presiders, liturgists, students and preachers. Those who plan and preside at daily services of the word or communion services will also need a copy to prepare reflections and practice readings. The parish library, sacristy and office can also benefit from this practical tool for preparing and celebrating daily Mass.
