NEW TO WINTER QUARTERS VISITOR CENTER: RARE FIRST EDITION BOOK of MORMON

 We had the opportunity of being on site when this
first edition Book of Mormon was placed in its showcase at the
Winter Quarters Visitor Center.

 ONE OF THE ORIGINAL 5,000 COPIES OF THE
BOOK OF MORMON PUBLISHED IN 1830.
 What a thrill to read from the pages of a
first edition Book of Mormon.

If only we knew where this book has traveled
 over the course of 183 years;
how many lives have been touched
 after reading from these pages...

What a great addition to our gallery at the
Winter Quarters Visitor Center.
 
One last up-close look at the book
before the glass enclosure is locked in place.
