A Book Review:5.0 out of 5 stars Expanded "Teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith."My first thought was that this book was a one-volume version of Histroy of the Church!Unike "Teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith," which is a collection of Joseph Smith's talks, "EJST" is a topical "quote book" compilation of Joseph Smith's teachings. The good is that it is easier to find what Joseph Smith said on a subject. The bad is that the context and the flow of the Prophet's logic is lost, so I use this book in conjuction with "Teachings." For example: the King Follet Discourse gets pretty hacked up by ellipses, But that is the hazard of having a "quote book," along with having someone else do your editing for you.Some of the extras that are included in this book are eight accounts of the First Vision, and the poetic version of Section 76-"The Vision." The Editors also include reminisces from "They Knew the Prophet," and quotes from Journal of Discourses, when Church leaders quoted something the Prophet said that is not recoded elswhere. It is wonderful to see these gems get broader circulation, and hopefully, they will begin to percolate into our Sunday Schoool lessons and into our lives.The biggest compliment that I have is that I teach Sunday School lessons with this book.My only complaint is that there were some reminisces found in "Discourses of Wilford Woodruff," and one or two other quotes from Joseph Smith that would have been nice to include in the book. And it would have been nice to see the Wentworth letter in an appendix. But it is a thick enough book as it is.Despite my one or two criticisms, this is a great book.
