About the Set:This is a first edition, three-volume set. Each volume is bound in full cloth with gilt titles on the spines. All volumes are in near fine condition with matching jackets. Volumes 1 and 2 are signed by the author, Peter Crawley, on the first blank page. This set comprises the definitive descriptive bibliography of all printed works of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints from its founding in 1830 through 1857. Crawley's work is widely regarded as the authoritative reference on the subject. As Crawley eloquently describes: "Mormonism's incunabula are the books of its first twenty-eight years. In large part, the Church is defined by these books. They tell, for example, of its birth in New York, its moves to Ohio and Missouri, then to Illinois, and finally its trek to a permanent refuge in the Great Basin. They recount the murder of Joseph Smith, its founder, the succession of Brigham Young, its leader for over three decades, and record the efforts of its missionaries who carried its message across the Atlantic and to South America, Asia, Africa, India, and Australia." These volumes are essential for any serious scholar of early Mormon history.
