This volume presents transcriptions of the three personal journals and first secretary's journal of early Latter-day Saint leader Brigham Young. Covering the period 1832-1846, it highlights his travels and preaching activities in the United States, Canada, and England, noting places visited, people taught and baptized, and events observed. Extensive annotation elucidates the text and offers helpful background. Supplemental sections offer detailed physical descriptions of each journal and its contents, a chronology, maps, and trip itineraries. Because after 1845 Brigham Young had clerks record his activities, his personal journals transcribed and annotated herein constitute an especially valuable record.
