Part 3 of 4 on the Nauvoo Expositor. This will build on the first part, continuing the discussion of the conspiracy against Joseph Smith, going forward to the destruction of the Expositor press and the martyrdom. It is hard to believe how misunderstood and intentionally twisted all of these events have been in people's efforts to paint Joseph Smith as a polygamist.

Part 4 will again focus on the specific claims of polygamy surrounding the Expositor and the high council meeting.
