suggest you change title--this is ambiguous--possibly use one of the later titles. DGG 18:55, 14 May 2007 (UTC)
In Vol. 4 of this work there are some quotes that I wonder if they are to be attributed to Joseph Smith, and if so, do they attest to him having been involved in Freemasonry?
The online version I have looked in isn't paginated, however the first quote should be on page 551 and the second on page 552.
I am also looking into a possible quote from John A. Widtsoe in Evidences and Reconcilliations allegedly attesting to the same. __ meco 14:13, 30 September 2007 (UTC)
Under the section "Status in the Church", it reads "…Roberts's History of the Church has never been published by LDS Church…" This appears to be incorrect, since each volume states on the title page "Published by the Church". The Deseret News in Salt Lake City is also identified, but not specified as a publisher. I will remove the incorrect statement. Rich jj ( talk) 14:07, 30 December 2008 (UTC)
Suggest name change to "History of the Church (book)" Any objections? If not will do it soon. Rogerdpack ( talk) 11:37, 6 August 2009 (UTC)
I'd just like to say that I disbelieve that the Tanner's counted all supposed 62,000 changes minutely by hand. That must be an estimate. Rogerdpack ( talk) 11:58, 6 August 2009 (UTC)
Reads fine by me. Rogerdpack ( talk) 11:59, 6 August 2009 (UTC)
At least that gets more hits than this. This should be a disambiguation page. In ictu oculi ( talk) 13:17, 13 March 2012 (UTC)
The result of the move request was: moved to History of the Church (Joseph Smith), and rudimentary dab page created. Please help expand it! Favonian ( talk) 14:46, 20 March 2012 (UTC)
History of the Church → History of the Church (Joseph Smith) – Most GB hits for "History of the Church" are referring to Church History (Eusebius), evidently the main use as a book title. Others relate to other books on the Ecclesiastical History disambiguation. Plus, this book was originally History of Joseph Smith from 1858 to rename in 1902, - and evidently the Church meant is LDS, so some kind of disambiguator is required, such as Eusebius has for his book. (then the remaining History of the Church to become a disambiguation page linking to both of them and others). In ictu oculi ( talk) 13:45, 13 March 2012 (UTC)
