Lucy's Book : A Critical Edition of Lucy Mack Smith's Family Memoir

[2002 Mormon Historical Association Winner for Best Documentary Editing]
"Mormonism begins with Lucy Mack, mother of the prophet Joseph Smith. In her dictated memoir, readers detect the same seeds of religious fervor and frontier idiom that characterized her son's writings and sermons. Although much of her original voice was lost through editing in the more formal, first published edition of her memoir-14 percent of the overall content having been discarded-Lucy's original manuscript survives and is presented here for the first time in its entirety. For comparison's sake, it is arranged in parallel columns with the first (1853) edition. Significant variants from later printings are indicated in the editor's footnotes, with prefatory chapters that provide historical background and textual genealogy." [Publisher's abstract]
