The book Life Of Elder John Smith: With Some Account Of The Rise And Progress Of The Current Reformation by John Augustus Williams, published in 1870, is a comprehensive biography of Elder John Smith, a prominent figure in the early history of the Latter Day Saint movement. The book provides a detailed account of Smith's life, from his birth in Massachusetts in 1781 to his death in Illinois in 1854. It covers his early years as a farmer and minister, his conversion to the Mormon faith in 1830, and his subsequent role as a missionary and leader within the Church. The book also provides a broader historical context, discussing the rise and progress of the current reformation that swept through the United States in the early 19th century, leading to the formation of new religious movements such as the Latter Day Saints. Williams explores the social and cultural factors that contributed to the growth of these movements, as well as the theological disputes and controversies that arose within them. Throughout the book, Williams draws on a range of primary sources, including letters, diaries, and other personal documents, to provide a vivid and engaging portrait of Elder John Smith and the world in which he lived. The book is an important resource for anyone interested in the history of the Latter Day Saint movement and the broader religious landscape of 19th-century America.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
