Why, among the stories of so many other battles, was this "tremendous battle such as one as never had been known" (Alma 28:2) not described with any detail? How could the Lamanites be so dumb (or be so well prepared) to think that they could be successful against the Nephites when just 3 years previous they had "been driven and slain" (Alma 25:3) and had come home when they "saw that they could not overpower the Nephites"? Why were the Lamanites so furious with the departure of the Anti-Nephi-Lehies when they wanted them dead (out of the way) to begin with? [Alan C. Miner, Personal Notes]
