There Had Been Slain Nearly Two Millions of His People

“To provide some perspective of the magnitude of the slaughter among Coriantumr’s people, we note that…From the American Revolutionary War through the Vietnam conflict (including the Civil War)­wars that introduced weapons of mass destruction—‘only’ 652,769 Americans died on the battlefield compared to the millions killed in these final Jaredite struggles where the people died in hand-to-hand combat.” (Douglas E. Brinley, Book of Mormon Symposium Series, 4 Nephi - Moroni, edited by PR Cheesman, MS Nyman, and CD Tate, Jr., 1988, p. 55)
