“Pratt and Goodson knew copies of [The Book of Mormon] would travel farther than they could in their lives. In their preface to the second edition, they anticipated that “this book will be conveyed to places which circumstances will render it impossible for us to visit, and be perused by thousands whose faces we may never see on this side of eternity.””
