The story revolves around the titular character, Ezra, who is a devout member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS), commonly known as the Mormon Church.

He struggles to reconcile his beliefs with the prejudices and misunderstandings of those around him, particularly non-Mormons who view his religion with suspicion and hostility.Throughout the novel, Ezra must navigate these challenges while also dealing with personal struggles and conflicts within his own family. He is torn between his love for his wife and his duty to the church, and he must also confront the harsh realities of life on the frontier, including poverty, illness, and violence.Despite these challenges, Ezra remains committed to his faith and his community, and the novel ultimately celebrates the strength and resilience of the Mormon people in the face of adversity. Overall, Ezra The Mormon is a compelling and insightful portrayal of the early history of the LDS Church and the challenges faced by its members.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
