About This Item
Provo: Grandin Book Company, 2003. First Edition, 1/225. 179pp. Octavo [23 cm] Green cloth with the title stamped in black on the front board and backstrip. Fine. This special edition was limited to 225 signed and numbered copies, this is number 50. Signed by the editor on the limitation page. The life of Eliza Maria Partridge, as expressed through her journal, coincides almost exactly with the restoration and establishment of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Born in 1820, she was ten years old, and the church was eight months old, when four Mormon missionaries called at her father's hat factory to preach their message to him. Her mother, Lydia, accepted the gospel almost immediately, but her father, Edward joined the church only after traveling from Ohio to New York on foot in rough winter weather to visit and be convinced by the Prophet Joseph Smith in person. Between 1830, when her family joined the church, and her death in 1886, she went through every difficulty and persecution faced by the Saints without ever wavering in her faith.
