Description
"History of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, Volume 1" is a semi-official history written between 1839 and 1856. This chronicle of the early Latter Day Saint movement during Joseph Smith's lifetime combines his writings with contributions from secretaries and scribes. The work was later extensively revised and republished by B. H. Roberts between 1902 and 1912. Volume 1 covers the period from 1805 through December 1833, documenting the founding years of a religious movement that would shape American religious history.
