W 1888 Book of Mormon 

Notes

The Book of Mormon is a sacred text of the Latter-day Saint movement, first published in 1830 by Joseph Smith, who claimed to have translated it from ancient golden plates revealed to him by an angel named Moroni. The book is regarded by followers as another testament of Jesus Christ, alongside the Bible. It narrates the history of ancient peoples in the Americas, primarily focusing on the spiritual journey of two civilizations, the Nephites and the Lamanites. Central to the text is the appearance of Jesus Christ in the Americas after his resurrection. The Book of Mormon is considered a cornerstone of the Latter-day Saint faith, providing teachings on faith, repentance, and salvation.
