We were there about a month ago, and the missionaries said that the church engineers said the structure holding the bell was unsafe so they took it down. Our at least they made it so you can't pull it. Liability, I guess...
There have been some great books published recently. I have American Zion, Second Class Saints, Dan Vogel’s Charisma Under Pressure. Any other important titles you could recommend?
What topics are you interested in? "Vengeance is Mine" on MMM is excellent. I could probably list more if I knew what you were interested in. Steve LeSueur's book on "1838 Mormon War in Missouri" is oldie but goodie, as is "Carthage Conspiracy" by Dallin Oaks and Marvin Hill. I also expect Paul Reeve's book coming out in October will be a must read: "This Abominable Slavery." (I'm pretty sure the title comes from Orson Pratt telling Brigham Young not to allow slavery in Utah Territory.) Here is my list of recommended books. (I need to update it.) gospeltangents.com/booklist/
