Fascinating on How & Why Women Were Excluded From Priesthood

This is, without question one of the most interesting takes and histories on how women lost priesthood power in the church! One of the coolest book reviews I have read this year. Only a few pages but loaded with cool information. NO ONE TELLS MIDGLEY...... he will Dox Jonathan Stapley anyway even if he does give his actual name. Midgley will be quite uncomfortable with Stapley. Being the male brat that he is, he will berate Stapley for "lying" about Joseph Smith wanting women to have the priesthood.

Would you say this is the most important piece of LDS literature since the play Twelve Angry Men by Reginald Rose?

Great review, Chris.
