Joseph Smith oversaw the publication of three Book of Mormons during his lifetime (Palmyra, 1830 - Kirtland, 1837 - Nauvoo 1840). With each new publication Joseph Smith made corrections and improvements. All three are offered here in parallel form so that the reader may compare the text of three editions. This is the first time that these three editions have been offered side by side by side. The text is unchanged from the originals. Introduction by the late gentleman bookseller Curt Bench. Signed by Curt Bench on the title page.
