Beginning with a meticulously researched account of this appalling double murder, Krakauer constructs a multi-layered, bone-chilling narrative of messianic delusion, polygamy, savage violence, and unyielding faith. Along the way he uncovers a shadowy offshoot of America's fastest growing religion, and raises provocative questions about the nature of religious belief.\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Vintage","offers":[{"title":"Under the Banner of Heaven: A Story of Violent Faith | Jon Krakauer | Paperback | 1400032806 | Used: Like New | Back Stacks R 1783210","offer_id":67579664826520,"sku":"1783210","price":11.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/71szFRlOAaL_b06e0f84-c946-4d75-8ced-dac1eca789b4.jpg?v=1790363742","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/under-the-banner-of-heaven-a-story-of-violent-faith-2","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
