23 LDS “Tracts” — Bound in One Hardcover Volume

Hardcover volume of Latter-day Saint missionary and doctrinal pamphlets, with TRACTS printed on the spine and nothing printed on the boards. This is an interesting period collection of separately issued Mormon missionary tracts, apparently gathered and bound together for preservation. The contents cover many of the principal subjects addressed by Latter-day Saint missionaries in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, including the Restoration, apostasy, baptism, priesthood authority, salvation, the Book of Mormon, the Second Coming, plural marriage, and responses to contemporary criticism of the Church.
