Description: This introduction to the Book of Mormon is easier to read than the Book of Mormon itself. It can be used as an entry into the sacred text, or as a substitute for reading it in its entirety. Either way, it will help newcomers and devotionally familiar readers better understand the message, contents, literary features, and context of the Mormon scripture, as well as its relationship to the Bible and its significance to believers. In general, this guide seeks to treat the Book of Mormon as an interesting, relatively recent, distinctly American addition to the library of world scripture.
