8pp. Octavo [22.5 cm] Not sewn. Minor discoloring and bumping to lower left corner of first leaf. We can locate ten institutional copies. According to Crawley "James Linforth was an assistant editor of the 'Millennial Star' and the book agent for the Liverpool Conference when he issued his response to Charles Washington Lawrence, the incumbent of St. Luke's Church in Liverpool. A few months earlier Linforth had published a five-part article in the 'Star,' "Baptismal Regeneration, or the Controversy in the Church of England," so he was undoubtedly primed to reply to Lawrence when he attacked the Saints. The 'Star' of July 1, 1851, ran the last two pages of 'The Rev. C.W. Lawrence's Replied and Refuted,' with the comment that it "was recently published in Liverpool" - suggesting that it was printed about June 1851. The European Mission financial records for the period do not mention the tract, so Linforth must have published and distributed it himself. No copy of Lawrence's tract is located, but the quotations from it in the 'Rev C.W. Lawrence's Replied and Refuted' indicate that it was mainly an attack on the claims and character of Joseph Smith. Linforth defends Joseph Smith by noting that, although he had never known him, he knew eight of the Twelve, "for the purity of whose characters and lives I can vouch - who were personally acquainted with him, had lived with him, had been imprisoned with him, and one of them shot with him at Carthage, and their testimony to me is, that he was a man of God." He includes statements by John S. Reid, John C. Bennett, and O.H. Browning attesting to Joseph Smith's integrity, each cited in the 'Times of Seasons,' and summarizes the events surrounding his assassination, quoting Thomas Ford from the 'Times and Seasons.' He suggests that the character of the followers reflects that of Joseph Smith and gives excerpts from Thomas L. Kane's 'The Mormons' and Truman Smith's 'Speech of Mr. Smith.Delivered in the Senate of the United States, July 8, 1850' praising the Mormon people. In response to Lawrence's use of the Charles Anthon letter in E.D. Howe's 'Mormonism Unvailed,' he adds a long excerpt from the sixth part of Orson Pratt's 'Divine Authenticity of the Book of Mormon.' In the last two pages Linforth attacks Lawrence's priestly authority and the Church of England's practice of infant baptism. The Reid and Smith quotations appear to have been taken from James F. Bell's 'Reply to a Bare Faced Falsehood and Misrepresentations of Mr. John Theobold." Crawley 585. Flake/Draper 4943.

Edition originale
Etat : Very Good. First edition. viii [1] - 120 pp. With the frontispiece folding map by F. D. Richards and all engravings and woodcuts present. Folio [31 cm] Rebacked in red leather with gilt bands and gilt stamped title on the spine. Original marble boards, with underlying boards exposed along the edges. Sprinkled edges. New gray endpapers. Hinges reinforced. Ex-library, with a single library label on the front pastedown. The front flyleaf has several minor tears to the fore-edge, and there are light tide marks (the majority of them small) in the margins of the plates. These marks occasionally just begin to bleed into the images. Caption title of bottom engraving on plate facing p. 44 trimmed close. The celebrated map shows the Utah Territory, outlined by hand in red, with its various counties; the Mormon trail is shown in brown and blue. In this map, Utah still includes Nevada and shows up as the only important Territory of the Great Basin. Fremont's routes are marked as well. The work was issued with 9 woodcuts and 30 engraved plates; all are present in this copy. There is a small pencil tick-mark next to the title of each of these on the list of plates. Lacking the tissue protectors. Scarce in any condition. A collection of engravings of the most significant landmarks and points of interest on the Route between Liverpool and Great Salt Lake City, such as "New Orleans," "St. Louis," "Camp at Keokuck," "Ruins of the Temple at Nauvoo," "Room in which Joseph and Hyrum Smith were imprisoned," "Wall against which Joseph Smith was placed and shot at after his assassination," "Council Bluffs Ferry & group of Cotton-wood trees," and "Great Salt Lake City in 1853." The book also includes portraits of prominent Latter-day Saints, including Joseph Smith, Hyrum Smith, Lucy Smith, and Brigham Young. Extremely high quality illustrations made from the drawings that talented young artist Frederick Piercy made along the trail. Bibliographer Peter Crawley states that "Route from Liverpool ranks as the most beautiful book published by the Latter-day Saints." Wright Howes refers to this work as "One of the most elaborately and beautifully illustrated of western books," and Carl Wheat called the Richards map "one of the most illuminating maps of the West". Wheat further declares, "This is not only an important map in the history of Mormonism, but is in every sense an important map of the West, giving as it does a carefully drawn picture of that entire area. Practically nothing is shown in the whole of New Mexico, including present Arizona, but for regions to the east, west and north the map is accurate and reasonably detailed." Wheat closes by claiming, "The map was excellent for the period." Originally serialized in fifteen issues starting in July of 1854, this impressive volume was the brainchild of young convert Frederick Piercy, and Samuel Richards, president of the Liverpool Mission. They envisioned a travel guide for English converts who wanted to make the trek to the Salt Lake Valley. Piercy (1830-1891) was a gifted artist and engraver whose beautiful work fills this volume. The overland journey of the Piercy party was made in 1853. Starting from New Orleans, the party proceeded up the Mississippi to Saint Louis and Nauvoo, back to Saint Louis, and then across Missouri and Nebraska to Wyoming, and over the South Pass into the Great Salt Lake Valley. The woodcuts and engravings that illustrate this work provide a rare visual glimpse of the overland trail and the Mormon trail west to the valley of the Great Salt Lake. Crawley 1070.

viii,120pp. plus folding map, thirty plates, and woodcuts in text after Frederick H. Piercy. Large quarto. Modern three-quarter morocco and marbled boards, gilt leather label. Map slightly trimmed, costing the top borderline in the map. Portraits of Willard Richards and John Taylor neatly excised from their old plate and mounted onto new paper. Very faint tideline barely visible on lower edge of final forty pages and final fifteen plates. The images themselves are generally clean and unblemished. Very good. One of the most important publications devoted to the Mormon emigration, and a landmark in the artistic depiction of western scenes. The plates are after illustrations by Frederick Piercy. "This elaborately prepared and illustrated book was published as a monument to the Mormon emigration to Utah, and as a means of attracting further emigrants. Piercy made a special trip to America [in 1853] to make sketches for the plates, which are some of the best western views of the period" - Streeter. The outstanding views show New Orleans, Natchez, Vicksburg, Nauvoo, Council Bluffs, Laramie, Fort Bridger, and Scott's Bluff. ".One of the most elaborately and beautifully illustrated of western books" - Howes. ".One of the basic sources of illustrated Western Americana of the period" - Taft. "One of the most illuminating maps of the West to appear during 1855.it shows Utah in all its glory. This is not only an important map in the history of Mormons, but is in every sense an important map in the history of the West, giving as it does a carefully drawn picture of that entire area" - Wheat.
