Product Description
Authors: Jennifer Ann Mackley
About Product: Many existing books and articles discuss specific temple ordinances, but the historical development of all temple ordinances has never been included in a single volume—until now. Wilford Woodruff’s Witness provides new insight even to those who are very familiar with Latter-day Saint history.
The account unfolds in Wilford Woodruff’s own words, drawn from primary sources including his journals, discourses, and letters, and the narrative is augmented by 120 archival images, as well as extensive footnotes and citations allowing for further study. This Enhanced Second Edition includes updated information and links to sources recently transcribed and published online at wilfordwoodruffpapers.org as part of the Wilford Woodruff Papers Project.
About Author: Jennifer Ann Mackley, JD, is the Executive Director of the Wilford Woodruff Papers Foundation, which she cofounded with Donald W. Parry in 2020. In addition to her legal practice, Jennifer has authored or edited 21 books. She has served as a historian for the Wilford Woodruff Family Association since 2014 and has made numerous presentations and podcasts based on her research of Wilford Woodruff’s life and records. Her hope in transcribing and publishing Wilford Woodruff’s Papers is to help Church members and historians alike understand the importance of the temple ordinances and gain insights into the Restoration through Wilford’s unique perspective of the revelatory process.
