Joseph Smith's Seer Stones

A new book by Michael Mackay and Nicholas Frederick titled Joseph Smith's Seer Stones, published by BYU's Religious Studies Center, will be available in stores September 6, 2016.

This book discusses the origins of Joseph Smith’s seer stones and explores how Joseph used them throughout his life in a way that goes beyond translating the Book of Mormon. It also traces the provenance of the seer stones once they leave his possession.

The exhibit’s artworks portray how figures in the Book of Mormon displayed courage to declare their faith and defend their families. It is part of the museum’s ongoing series of online art exhibits highlighting the stories of the Book of Mormon.
