Secret history

the long version

Although much has been said and written concerning Mormonism, its origin, teachings, strategy, and so forth, yet there is very little that has been set forth in Danish. The purpose of this present little essay is to give to the Danish public a condensed historical account of the origin and spread of Mormonism, and also to unveil the mysterious and deceptive system on which it is based, not only for its genesis but also for its almost unbelievable mysteries and crimes to which it has continually resorted in order to preserve its power and influence. - Preface to the original edition.
