Description:
Though the restored Church is comparatively young, it has a rich and vivid history, with more artifacts being uncovered constantly. This second volume highlights the history of the Church through 50 more sacred objects gathered throughout the Church's history. From its beginning with Joseph Smith and the First Vision, the Restoration has spread across the globe, and every piece of historic evidence tells the stories of the Latter-day Saints.
In this volume, you will find photos and commentary of objects such as
- A fragment of the original Book of Mormon manuscript
- Wilford Woodruff's journal
- The first Latter-day Saint Hymnbook from 1836
- A lace doily from Armenian refugee Saints
- Joseph Fielding Smith's typewriter
- The Kabul Afghanistan Military District Conference DVD
- Tom Trails filmstrips from the 1960s
- A Seawall Stone from Moroni High School in Kiribati
These relics of days past testify of the hardships, joys, and testimonies of Latter-day Saints throughout the history of the Church. Through these small glimpses of history, you can interact with your forebears and be inspired by their stories of faith.
