2.  BYU publication concerning the 1820 Vision which states: "Joseph Smith discussed this transcendent [Magnificent] vision only privately with a few trusted friends during the Church’s first decade."  Contrast this with Smith's 1838 History in which he said:  "I continued to pursue my common vocations in life until the twenty-first of September, one thousand eight hundred and twenty-three, all the time suffering severe persecution at the hands of all classes of men, both religious and irreligious, because I continued to affirm that I had seen a vision." Verse (27) (See documentation)

3.  Introduction by Richard Bushman

4.  The Angel and the Gold Plates
