The Life of Nephi George Q Cannon

Written by apostle George Q. Cannon, "The Life of Nephi: The Son of Lehi" covers the life of one of the larger figures within the Book of Mormon, the prophet Nephi. This book is a careful and detailed presentation of Nephi and his life, surroundings, and circumstances. As Elder Cannon says in the Preface: "The Prophet Nephi, whose life we here present, was one of the greatest and most advanced of these teachers of heavenly truths. There have been but few men, so far as we know, who comprehended, and spoke, and wrote about them as plainly as did he."
