Witness to the Martyrdom: John Taylor's Personal Account of the Last Days of the Prophet Joseph

John Taylor's brief declaration of the martyrdom of Joseph and Hyrum Smith, which later became Section 135 in the Doctrine and Covenants, tells only part of the history of these events. Witness To The Martyrdom is an edited version of John Taylor's complete narrative compiled by the great-great-grandson of John Taylor. An important historical contribution to LDS literature, this book details events leading up to and culminating with the martyrdom, including additional information about John Taylor's own wounds and suffering.
