[2013 Mormon Historical Association Winner for Best Documentary Editing]
[2013 John Whitmer Historical Association winner for Best Documentary History Award]
This volume presents four histories written by church historians by assignment from Joseph Smith. The volume includes works by two men, John Whitmer and John Corrill, who both distanced themselves from the church before finishing their histories. The book also includes two histories published in Latter-day Saint newspapers, William W. Phelps's "Rise and Progress of the Church of Christ," and the Times and Seasons series "A History, of the Persecution, of the Church of Jesus Christ, of Latter Day Saints, in Missouri." Together these histories provide a rich, multifaceted view of the early years of the Latter-day Saint movement, particularly the "Mormon War" of 1838. [Amazon] -
