Of late, in a series of blog posts, a rather well-known non-Mormon historian has taken quite negative aim at the Book of Mormon.

Who will take up the task?
My friend and former BYU colleague Bill Hamblin appears poised to do so.

Dr. Hamblin contributes an item for the “You probably shouldn’t hold your breath” file:
