"Under The Banner Of Heaven: A Story Of Violent Faith"

I recommend Jon Krakauer's "Under The Banner of Heaven" - a deft interweaving of Mormon history with a breathtakingly dramatized account of a horrifying murder in which paternalism, sexism, polygamy and "prophetic self-righteousness" go from bad to worse.

I sooooo hope they make the "planned" movie! 

"In July 2011, Warner Bros. purchased the film rights to the book with Ron Howard directing and Dustin Lance Black writing the screenplay.[9]"
