[MORMONISM]. The Latter-Day Saints Millennial Star, Volume XII. Liverpool: Edited and Published by Orson Pratt, 1850.
Numbers 1-24 in one volume, 8vo (213 x 134 mm). General title, preface and index bound at front. (Minor marginal spotting or staining to a few leaves, a few mostly marginal annotations.) Contemporary half calf, marbled boards, spine gilt, brown morocco lettering-piece gilt (some very light wear, bookplate removed from pastedown). Provenance: Matthias Cowley (1829-1864), British Mormon, early overland pioneer to the Salt Lake Valley (signature partially effaced on pastedown); Arthur W. North (gift inscription in purple pencil from Harriet B. Hasker, see below).
The complete run of Numbers 1-24 comprising Volume XII of The Latter-Day Saints Millennial Star, the final volume edited by Orson Pratt (see lot 315). Unlike earlier volumes in which a new number was released each month, numbers were issued twice per month. Numbers 1-8 include information about the pilgrimage from Nauvoo to Salt Lake City, adapted from the private overland journal of Orson Pratt. He began to report on the journey in Volume XI, Nos. 23-24, and the complete account was published as a separate work entitled Exodus of Modern Israel in 1947. Covering the most significant period of the migration west, Pratt details conditions faced by the emigrants, as well as information about the gold rush, the condition in the mines, and early government in California and Utah. In her gift inscription, Harriet Hasker notes that she is "Daughter of Pioneer John Binns, Utah 1847." See Flake 4779; see Wagner-Camp 171. UNCOMMON WITH FINE EARLY LATTER DAY SAINT PROVENANCE.
