Isn't it amazing that old Joe Smith (the gold digger) the founder of the mormon church, owns the most expensive real estate in America.

This is perhaps the most famous Joseph Smith biography. This was one of the first books I read in my "search for truth". I couldn't put the thing down--even skipped part of church to read it. ;) When I finished the book, I thought that if 10% of it was accurate, the Mormon church certainly wasn't what it claimed to be. After reading Hugh Nibley's rebuttal, I realized that much more than 10% of it was true.
The book is far from perfect, but don't take a Mormon's word for it when they claim that, "She tends to ignore information and resources that don't support her preconceived ideas". Although this statement may be partially true, the reality is that the conclusions of those who objectively study Joseph Smith are very different from those of true believing Mormons who "tend to ignore information and resources that don't support their preconceived ideas".
