Being a summary statement of the investigation made by the British government of the "Mormon" question in England

This work collects and comments on a British government inquiry into the so‑called “Mormon question” that stirred public opinion in the early 1910s. By juxtaposing sensational newspaper headlines with verbatim excerpts from parliamentary debates, the author shows how fear, moral panic, and political rhetoric intertwined around accusations of kidnapping, polygamy and proselytising. Readers gain a sense of the era’s social climate, where ministers, journalists and ordinary citizens all demanded an impartial verdict.

The narrative follows the official procedure, beginning with questions raised in the House of Commons and the Home Secretary’s promise to investigate. It highlights the tension between calls for strict control and the lack of concrete evidence, noting statements from figures such as Churchill that the government had found no basis for action. Through these documents the book lets listeners hear the voices of a time when religious minorities were both feared and defended, offering a nuanced glimpse into early‑twentieth‑century British politics.
