Excerpt from The Historical Record, 1886: A Monthly Periodical, Devoted Exclusively to Historical, Biographical, Chronological and Statistical Matters; Volumes V, Vi, VII and VIII; Church Encyclopedia, Book 1
When the author of this work, in 1886, began the publication of the Hrs'romcu. Record, it was his intention during the following four years to give the public a work of reference on Church history, covering the entire period from the Prophet Joseph Smith's birth to the present time. This could have been accomplished by the adoption of a uniform system of brev ity throughout; but having to rely on public patronage, in order to make the undertaking a possibility from a financial standpoint, it was found nec essary, as the work proceeded, to deviate somewhat from the original plan, and enter more deeply and minutely into matters pertaining to early Church history, which seemed to be of special interest to a majority of readers. Consequently, the four volumes, now completed, will be found to treat mostly upon matters pertaining to the progress of the Church previous to the location of its headquarters in Utah, and the narration of more modern incidents is reserved for a future work.
