Title
The Deseret Primer: Containing Lessons for Juveniles
Description
Printed by Elias Smith, a cousin of Joseph Smith, this primer was produced at the request of the Board of Regents to address a shortage of schoolbooks in the territory. In many ways, it mimicked the national primers of the time though, its run was brief, as Brigham Young soon halted printing and urged that new primers be issued in the Deseret Alphabet.
