Either 3,000 or 5,000 copies
of this edition (the second)
were printed. It was published
by Parley P. Pratt and John
Goodson in Kirtland, Ohio.
The typesetting and printing
were done during the winter
of 1836Ð37, with Joseph Smith
and Oliver Cowdery taking
an active part in the editing
process.
For this edition, hundreds
of grammatical changes and
a few emendations were made
in the text to correct
printers and transcription
errors. The 1830 edition and
the printer's manuscript were
used as the basis for this
edition. As the translator
of the text, and Prophet,
Joseph Smith also made a
number of editorial changes
to correct or clarify.
