This well-worn yet lovingly preserved copy of B.H. Roberts’ “History of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, Volume VI” offers a window into the life and times of Joseph Smith, the founding prophet of the Mormon faith. Published just four years after Roberts’ death, this volume represents the culmination of his decades-long quest to document the early history of the LDS Church. While the physical condition betrays its age, with taped covers and markings attesting to its well-loved status, the clean pages and sturdy binding hint at the care with which this book has been handled over the years. For collectors of Mormon literature and historians alike, this volume holds immense value as a firsthand account of Joseph Smith’s life and the tumultuous beginnings of a uniquely American religious movement that continues to shape the cultural fabric of the United States to this day.
