If you're taking the LDS-pill I humbly recommend Under the Banner of Heaven. It's a good survey of the history you summarize above plus a bit of modern day anthropology about splinter fundamentalist Mormon groups with a gripping true crime story at its center. Very much enjoyed it. Krakauer spins a good yarn.

This is the Andrew Garfield series! Thanks for recommending, bro I've been meaning to watch it for a while.

No comment on the series, unknown to me. But the book is great.

Netflix did a pretty good doc on the Warren Jeffs FLDS stuff a few years back iirc. “Keep Sweet, Pray, and Obey” I think it was called.
