Where this text comes from
First published in New York in 1837. Pratt wrote in a later preface that the first edition sold slowly, then worked itself into notice, so that by that time thirteen thousand copies had been sold. This recording follows the eleventh edition of 1881. Chapter VII was printed in two columns; here the paragraphs alternate, with the doctrine of Christ in one voice and the doctrines of men in another.
Text produced for Project Gutenberg by the Mormon Texts Project and its volunteers (released March 11, 2011).
