 | | For LDS children, the Book of Mormon is a source of stories and heroes to equal those of the Bible—Joseph in Egypt, Daniel in the lions´ den, the faithful Ruth, and brave Queen Esther. |
 | | In 1832, two and one-half years after the book was published, the word of the Lord warned the Saints that they had treated the revelations too lightly and had neglected to "remember the new covenant, even the Book of Mormon" (D&C 84:57). |
 | | The title page was used as the description of the Book of Mormon on the federal copyright application filed June 11, 1829, with R. Lansing, Clerk of the District Court of the United States for the Northern District of New York, at Albany. |
