Holy Joe! Prophet, Seer, and Revelator is a biographical, historical, fact-based frontier fiction. The story starts out in 1822 in Upstate, New York when Mason Chase hires a crew of local farm hands to dig a well on his property. At the bottom of a well a stone is found and we quickly find young Joseph Smith using this stone to find treasures hidden below the earth. His new found fame as a necromancer leads to a legal trial where he is charged with deceiving people through the use of his stone. As maturity sets in, visions of treasure are set aside for visions of heavenly messengers and a new religion is born. Shortly after the publication of the Book of Mormon, elders are sent out to spread the word of this new religion and the kingdom experiences rapid growth. From his early days as a money-digger to his final days as a martyred prophet, the life of Joseph Smith is a mixture of adoration and apostasy from his people, blended with the ever present friction brought on by suspicion and mistrust for those he called gentiles--non-believers.
