Description
Midvale: Signature Books, 1985. First Edition, 135/400. 625pp.Octavo [23.5 cm] Rust colored cloth with the title gilt stamped on the front board and backstrip. Gray cloth wrap-around at the foot. Near fine. The journals of Wilford Woodruff, fourth president of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, rank among the most significant documents of Mormonism and the Amereican West. As Brigham Young University Archivist David J. Whittaker has noted, their seven thousand manuscript pages "are for Mormon history what the Thomas Jefferson papers are for American History: bedrock, primary source material for the men and ideas that shaped their reespective institutions. From New York to Ohio, Missouri, Illinois, and Utah, this remarkable man of faith recorded virtually the entire spectrum of nineteenth-century Mormonism. It is a record that every serious student of Mormonism must eventually research and study." This typescript is the first published version of the complete journals. Converted to Mormonism less than four years after its inception, Wilford Woodruff always seemed to be on the cutting edge of the movement: Zion's Camp, Kirtland, the mission of the Twelve to England, Nauvoo, the pioneer trek to Utah, settlement of the Great Basin, early Mormon agricultural and manufacturing associations, the Reformation and Utah War, the completion of the transcontinental railroad, the polygamist underground, the drive for Utah's statehood, and the passing of Mormonism's first generation.
