Hardcover.
Orem, Utah: Noble Publishing, 1980. 99p. This is a RARE book. It is estimated that 20-30 copies survived. The author had 10,000 copies printed, but before they were released to bookstores a General Authority asked him to destroy the book. The reasoning for the request is unknown, however speculation has run rampant, from doctrinal problems, to discussing the history of the calling of Patriarch when the Church patriarch, Eldred Smith, had been released the previous year. Whatever the reason, the author obediently took all but one case of the books to the dump. He held back a few copies for his children and grand-children. You will NOT find this book very often, and with the number of LDS book collectors increasing each year, once they are in private hands, it will be impossible to get a copy.
The book hass a bend to the front cover. A prior owner's name and address have been whited-out on the first blank page. DJ has rubbing to corners and the back.

1st edition ed. GREAT CONVERSATION PIECE!
1868 Deseret Alphabet Primer. New York, 1868. 72p. Cream-colored cover, binding in tact. The Deseret Alphabet was invented by Orson Pratt, at Brigham Young's request, as a tool to help children learn English. Since Saints were coming from all over the world. It was a noble venture, but died out and just didn't catch on.
The Deseret Alphabet was implemented by Brigham Young primarily to enable foreign-speaking Mormon immigrants to be able to communicate via a common language once they reached Salt Lake City.
This book is one of the four that were printed in the Deseret Alphabet. These are great historical publications with an interesting story behind them.
