McGavin writes in the Introduction: For every apology that is offered for this modern book of Scripture, a similar one must be offered for the Bible itself; and this is exactly what is done in the following pages. Not a solitary correction has been made in the Nephite record which hasn't a duplicate in the Holy Bible. Hence, as we offer excuses for one, we are obligated to include the other in the same category. If the Book of Mormon is crushed by the weight of literary criticism and falls to the ground, it carries the Bible with it.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
