Reading copy of the 1830 Palmyra edition of the Book of Mormon, from the Historical Short Creek archive. Chapter divisions follow the 1830 printing, which differ from later editions. Modern verse references in brackets (for example [1 Nephi 1:1]) are editorial finding aids in this file; they were not printed in 1830. The 1830 work is in the public domain in the United States.
The testimonies of the Three and Eight Witnesses, printed at the end of the 1830 volume, were not present as separate pages in that EPUB. The wording here is taken from the 1830 Palmyra printing in the linked scan; obvious OCR errors in the scan’s text layer were corrected.
