One of the most important histories that has not previously been available is a complex history of the early Church written in several installments by Newel Knight. He was one of a few early converts to write about the founding events in Church history. Knight died in January 1847, north of Winter Quarters, at the young age of forty-six. During the last five years of his life, he wrote a personal history composed of two elements: autobiography and journal. Though extremely important to the history of the Church, Knight's history has always been a difficult source to use because it was never published in one place until now. This publication of his history will bring together his manuscripts and offer a way to cite them more precisely.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"DESERET","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52608262177034,"sku":"2100000080304","price":24.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/ldsbook.co.uk\/products\/the-rise-of-the-latter-day-saints-the-journals-and-histories-of-newel-k-knight-by-william-g-hartley-and-michael-hubbard-mackay","provider":"Latter Day Bookstore \u0026 More (UK) ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
