Warren P. Aston, "Across Arabia with Lehi and Sariah: "Truth Shall Spring out of the Earth"," JBMS (City Unknown: FARMS, 2003), 8-25, 110-13 Aston examines the many parallels between what the Book of Mormon records during the Lehi trek through the wilderness, and what we currently know of the ancient Arabian landscape.

Warren P. Aston, "Newly Found Altars from Nahom," JBMS 10:2 (Provo, UT: FARMS, 2001), 57-61 Aston reports on his examination of the ancient NHM altars and how they relate to Book of Mormon archaeology.

S. Kent Brown, "Refining the Spotlight on Leh and Sariah," JBMS, 15:2 (City Unknown: FARMS, 2006), 44-120 Dr. S. Kent Brown examines the possible route and likely stops made by the Lehites and they made their way through Arabia.

S. Kent Brown, The Place Which Was Called Nahom. chapter one of In the Footsteps of Lehi, online at the FARMS site. This confirmed ancient location and place name matches the Book of Mormon text remarkably well. The burden is on the critics to explain how Joseph Smith could possibly have fabricated the account about Nahom and the journey in the Arabian peninsula described in First Nephi.

Lynn M. Hilton, "In Search of Lehi's Trail- 30 Years Later," JBMS (City Unknown: FARMS, 2006), 3-7, 110 Lynn Hilton looks at the scholarship from the last few decades regarding the likely path of Lehi's sojourn through the wilderness.

Richard Wellington and George Potter, "Lehi's Trail: From the Valley of Lemuel to Nephi's Harbor," JBMS (City Unknown: FARMS, 2003), 26-43, 113-16 Having traveled through Arabia in search of features that could match Lehi's route through Arabia, Potter and Wellington offer their views and intepretations of their findings.
