It is just an amazing piece of literature. You will be STUNNED how much of what the Tanners have is from Mormon archives. The implication being, the current church hierarchy is fully aware their faith is a steaming pile of garbage, and that's why when someone these days want's to look at an old edition of any Mormon publications, they are frequently unavailable because they reveal things were different back then and they do not want to upset the apple cart. Even old settlers diaries (they have a pile of them) are unavailable if they mention anything that reveals a secret, or something that was changed, or some doctrine that has since changed.
And since the LDS church was (foolishly) commanded by God (snicker) to be a record keeping people, they kept records compulsively, and almost from day one, tended to publish everything. So items that are unavailable in the Mormon archives tend to turn up in other non Mormon controlled archives and collections. People just have to be looking for them (like the Tanners did) and recognize items when they find them.
Did you know the ORIGINAL version of the revelation allowing polygamy restricted wives subsequent to the first to be only Native Americans ??
Stuff like that. There is almost 600 pages of it in The Changing World of Mormonism.
ALL the revelations have been changed since they were first received, some more than twice !!!

The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
