The Pearl of Great Price : A History and Commentary

This History and Commentary has been written to fill the need of the Latter-day Saints for an up-to-date, comprehensive history and commentary on the Pearl of Great Price. The popular and respected histories and commentaries of the past are either out of print or were printed before 1981 when the new edition of the Pearl of Great Price was published. Considerable research in recent years has provided exciting new insights that update the historical material relied upon by previous publications. But perhaps the most significant contribution of this work is its unique collection of primary sources for doctrinal commentary on the Pearl of Great Price: statements of members of the First Presidency and the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles.
