Deseret Book: the publisher we love to hate. Well, don’t we? For generations Deseret Book has published books and other materials unique to our culture that no mainstream publisher would have touched – we love them. We don’t like much of what they sell, and they won’t publish much that we would like – we hate them. But like our sometimes generous uncles or too-kissy aunts, Deseret Book is ours, a member of the family, and we keep running into her whenever the family gets together.
Deseret Book descends from the pioneer publishing empire of George Q. Cannon, who, with his sons and assorted others, printed the Deseret News newspaper, did job printing for the public, published many of the tracts used by missionaries, and published the Juvenile Instructor beginning in 1866. Eventually they opened a bookstore on Salt Lake’s Main Street, where they sold their own publications and books imported from elsewhere.
Cannon died in 1901, and the bookstore end of the operation was sold to the company then publishing the Deseret News; it remained in its Main Street headquarters and operated under the name “Deseret News Bookstore.” In 1909, the Sunday School auxiliary – uncorrelated and independently – decided to go into the book publishing business, and opened a book store on Salt Lake’s South Temple street. That was called the “Deseret Sunday School Union Book Store,” although they didn’t limit themselves to materials directly relevant to the Sunday Schools – this ad suggests that they published textbooks used by the LDS University (an early 20th-century institution occupying the site of the current Church Office Building), or at least “GOOD BOOKS” in general.
In 1919, the DSSU Book Store married the Deseret News Bookstore. Our familiar crazy aunt, Deseret Book, was born in 1920, in the old family home on South Temple. She has lived on that site ever since (although she is now in temporary quarters nearby while the block is being rebuilt from the ground up).
And with that genealogy, Keepapitchinin presents yet another book list, this time the very first catalog of Deseret Book Company (which is apparently so big that WordPress can’t handle it with all the codes; please mentally center all the headings).

New Edition of the Book of Mormon – Just off the press. It now appears in new and attractive dress, with innovations in make-up and typography. As only mechanical changes have been made, of course; the text remains the same.
It is set up in eight-point type, double-column pages, after the general style of the Bible. An advantage of this arrangement is a shorter line, which greatly facilitates reading, reducing eyestrain and fatigue.
An interesting feature of the new edition is a “Brief Analysis,” which emphasizes vital points and clarifies certain details of arrangement that would be otherwise obscure. The volume abounds in foot-notes, which are a very helpful key to the chronological sequence of the history. The chapter headings present in terse form, the principal contents of the respective chapters, and show at a glance whose words follow. These headings, in somewhat expanded form, are compiled in the after-part of the volume as a “Synopsis of Chapters.”
A glossary of words distinctly of Book of Mormon origin, will be a great aid to pronunciation of proper names and other words. But the greatest help of all is afforded by a comprehensive index, which fills 34 pages; subjects being indexed and cross-indexed.

Prophecies of Joseph Smith and Their Fulfilment
By NEPHI LOWELL MORRIS
Was Joseph Smith a Prophet? What answers come from the century that has rolled by since he beheld his first vision? Have the Latter-day Saints misplaced faith in him? After the progress of a hundred years, what has Time done with his claims to the title of a Prophet?
In order to make plain the outcome of Time the author has dug up old and forgotten manuscripts and prints which he lays before the readers, with photographic reproductions of the originals. Price, $1.25.
