	History of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints by Joseph Smith (edited by BH Roberts)
		This 'official history' of the early LDS Church is edited from the Utah church's viewpoint.
		Although the church hasn’t officially denounced this history as being written by someone other than Joseph Smith, the fact is that much of it was not written by him and most of it was put together after he was dead.
		This history would still be very disturbing (although few active members have bothered to read it) in the eyes of most Mormons who are only familiar with the typical “Sunday School” sanitized version of the church’s supposed spotless history.

	1838 Joseph Smith History and Spalding
		At the beginning of 1838 Joseph Smith and Sidney Rigdon fled their crumbling ecclesiastical domain in Kirtland, Ohio and found refuge among the Mormons of Far West, Missouri.
		At the end of April 1838 Joseph Smith reported that he himself was writing a new history of his experiences and the early years of the Mormon Church.
		A major difference between the two passages is that Smith's History personifies "Rumor," while Spalding's story personifies "Fame." Spalding probably picked up their particular phraseology from the text of a 17th century play entitled "The Triumphs of Love and Innocence" (published as "Queen of Cypress, or Love Above Ambition").
