Richly illustrated, meticulously edited, and with a new Introduction by the authors, this book brings to life passages in the Book of Mormon like never before. Knowing Why discusses what new progress has been made in the last few decades in archaeology, geography, linguistics, and history to help support the claims of the Book of Mormon.

Even with all the exciting Book of Mormon discoveries, the power in this book is its focus on knowing why. This book not only highlights archaeological and literary evidence for the Book of Mormon, but it expounds on its meaning and significance for your personal testimony of the Book of Mormon. The most important contribution of Knowing Why is its emphasis on strengthening the reader's testimony of the Book of Mormon through meaningful reflection and application to gospel living.
