Book excerpt: Most Mormons already believe the Hill Cumorah is in New York. However, certain LDS intellectuals are teaching that there are "two Cumorahs" because they are trying to persuade Mormons that the Book of Mormon took place in Central America (Mesoamerica). Joseph Smith and Oliver Cowdery wrote Letter VII to declare that Cumorah was in New York. This important letter, largely forgotten in recent years, was consistently proclaimed in official Church publications while Joseph was alive and remains the single best prophetic explanation of Book of Mormon geography.This book provides context for understanding Letter VII. It is essential reading for everyone who is interested in LDS Church history and the historicity of the Book of Mormon.
