Glad Tidings Near Cumorah

Bruce E. Dana, Springville, Utah: Cedar Fort, 2003, 6x9" softbound, 166 pages. ISBN: 1555177239

After long centuries without priesthood authority and church organization, the restoration of the gospel began to unfold in upstate New York in the 1820s. In this peaceful area near the Hill Cumorah, young Joseph Smith spoke with Moroni, an angel sent from heaven. Moroni told Joseph a book written upon gold plates was buried in the nearby hill. Joseph Smith was also told there were other sacred items deposited with the plates. Whatever became of those sacred relics? Read about:

Eyewitness accounts of the gold plates that were translated into The Book of Mormon
Items viewed by the Three Witnesses, such as the sword of Laban, the Liahona, and the Urim and Thummim
Appearances by resurrected beings to early members of the Church
Joseph Smith's seer stone

Your testimony will be strengthened as you read fascinating eyewitness accounts of early Saints who lived in this sacred area, saw heavenly visitors and beheld marvelous relics from the past.

Bruce E. Dana is an avid student of the gospel, a returned missionary with service in the Northwestern States and Pacific Northwest missions for the Church. He attended Weber State College and Utah State University.
