[General] [S]even weeks after Joseph called "... the Book of Mormon ... the most correct of any book on earth," he was at it again, full of energy to make it even more correct, reading the "... American stereotype edition [1840] ... for the purpose of correcting the stereotype plates of some errors which escaped notice in the first edition."

  1. I generally like this blog, but this entry is pretty weird. It makes it sound like the author (or Rick Grunder) feels that correcting typesetting errors was somehow a bad thing. Or am I missing something?

    Thanks! :-)
