Joseph Smith's history

Book • 2014
This book is a historical and personal narrative detailing the life of Joseph Smith, the founder of the Latter Day Saint movement, as told by his mother, Lucy Mack Smith.

It was dictated by Lucy Mack Smith in 1845, shortly after Joseph's death, to scribes Martha Jane Knowlton Coray and her husband Howard Coray.

The book chronicles the life of Joseph Smith, the family's lineage, their struggles, and the spiritual experiences that shaped them.

It also provides unique insights into the early days of the Mormon Church and the Smith family's role within it.

Despite some controversy over its accuracy and publication, the book is considered a valuable source for understanding Mormon origins.
