The goal of the project is to provide easy access to an accurate and complete transcription of the key documents of the Restoration—many of which are widely scattered and hard to read—and in the process to help preserve a precious historical treasure from permanent damage or loss. This multi-volume work will make available to all serious students of Joseph Smith and Mormonism the essential sources pertaining to the Prophet's life and times.
