The most complete and accessible edition of the foundational text
Grant Hardy is a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and chair of the history department at the University of North Carolina at Asheville. He is the author of Worlds of Bronze and Bamboo: Sima Qian's Conquest of History.
"Hardy's thoughtful 'reader's edition' eliminates the current
official text's knotty versification, clarifies the cast of
characters, includes a useful introduction and provides signposts
through the sometimes dense prose. . . . Essential for the full
comprehension of Mormonism."--Wall Street Journal, Samuel Morris
Brown
"Grant Hardy has provided the members of the Church of Jesus
Christ of Latter-day Saints with a remarkable new version of their
founding text. Although Hardy gears his book to a broad readership,
those who truly love the Book of Mormon, seek to be serious
students of it, or both, will find A Reader's Edition well worth
owning."--Louis Midgley in Insights
"This edition . . . makes the book especially helpful and
intelligible to new readers and provides refreshing insights to
Latter-day Saints."--BYU Magazine
