In this chapter Reeder examines three women's witnesses of Joseph Smith. By analyzing the testimonies left by Lucy Mack Smith, Eliza R. Snow, and Helen Mar Whitney, Reeder illuminates an important perspective of Joseph Smith from some of the women who were close to him during his lifetime. Each of these women wrote with a different purpose and to a different audience, but each sought to commemorate Joseph Smith and to record and testify of some of the true aspects of his history.
