The authors acknowledge that...while the present volume does not deal with all the phases of geography, it is in a sense more than geography. Some attention is given here to practically all aspects of the Book of Mormon except doctrine. They do know the starting points of all three colonies in the old world. The Jaredites began their journey at Babel; the Mulekites and Nephites came from Jerusalem. Of the Mulekites nothing more is told. Of the other two some facts are given, and other details can be determined with a fair degree of certainty. Other matters are left altogether to conjecture. Contents are divided into the following three parts: The Jaredites; The Mulekites; and The Nephites.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
