I was offended
I read the first chapter to see what it was all about. Being a practicing member of the church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, I was interested to see what Rinker would say about the “Mormons” when he met them in Wyoming. And Rinker couldn’t say anything nice. Instead, he condemns their organization, their cleanliness, their genuine kindness and regards them as inferior to himself and his brother. Why Rinker? I read no further.
