Joseph Smith and his associates created two manuscripts of the Book of Mormon. The original manuscript was created while the text of the Book of Mormon was actually being dictated. Only roughly thirty percent of this original manuscript survives as a result of extensive water damage. The printer's manuscript, which is almost entirely complete, is a copy of the first edition of the Book of Mormon. This volume is a facsimile edition of the printer's manuscript of the Book of Mormon. The manuscript is presented here with full-color photographs of each page, and color-coded transcripts that show which revisions were made by which scribe. This book gives readers unprecedented access to this early text of the Book of Mormon.
