The Book of Mormon, Doctrine and Covenants and Pearl of Great Price are three of the four scriptural works accepted by members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The Book of Mormon presents itself as a record of ancient peoples in the Americas and Christ's visit to them. The Doctrine and Covenants collects revelations received by Joseph Smith and his successors on church organization and practice. The Pearl of Great Price contains the Book of Moses, the Book of Abraham, Joseph Smith's history and the Articles of Faith. Together they form the core texts of the church's teachings.
This is for church members, missionaries and students of American religion who want to read the primary texts directly. Anyone comparing Christian traditions will find these books central to understanding Latter-day Saint belief.
Deep and contemplative; a moderate read.
Best for readers like The Deep Diver. Which reader are you?
