This is the latest version, updated as of March 2018. The Pocket Edition includes the essentials of the full edition of Moroni's America (ISBN 978-1512087987). The Pocket Edition introduces the North American geography of the Book of Mormon. It is intended for believing Mormons as well as nonbelievers who want to know how the Book of Mormon describes North America. A key point is the location of Cumorah. It is widely understood by Mormons that Cumorah is in New York, but that's not what most Mormon scholars believe. Instead, they follow a "two-Cumorah" theory that claims the hill in New York is just the place where Moroni deposited the plates, but the "real Cumorah" is somewhere in southern Mexico. They accept the "two-Cumorah" theory because it's the only way to explain the popular "limited geography Mesoamerican setting" for Book of Mormon events. Although many books, articles, and web pages have been created to justify and promote the Mesoamerican theory, it remains difficult to reconcile that theory with the text, with Church history, and with relevant archaeology, anthropology, geology, geography, etc. The North American setting is congruent with the text, with Church history, and with the relevant science. Moroni's America fully accepts the New York Cumorah. With that as a pin in the map, the book explores the text to see whether, and how, it fits the topography and culture in North America.
