Joseph Smith As A Translator is a critical examination of Joseph Smith's claims to have translated ancient Egyptian writings, specifically the Book of Abraham, which is considered a sacred text in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The author, R.C. Webb, uses the best available knowledge of the present day to scrutinize Smith's translation methods and the accuracy of his claims. Webb analyzes the historical and cultural context of the time, as well as the linguistic and archaeological evidence, to provide a candid evaluation of Smith's abilities as a translator. This book is an essential read for anyone interested in the history of the early Mormon Church and the controversies surrounding its founder's claims to divine revelation.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
