We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "First: The Life and Faith of Emma Smith" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.
From acting as a scribe for the translation of the Book of Mormon to founding the Relief Society, Emma Hale Smith was a key figure in the Restoration. She was also her husbands anchor and the love of his life. But how much do we really know about her role, teachings, and leadership?
Drawing upon letters written by Emma to Joseph and to many others, along with minutes from Relief Society meetings and other artifacts, this book sketches a more complete portrait of this elect lady. It allows each of us to become personally acquainted with Emma as we learn more about her essential work as a leader, a wife, and a mother in the early days of the Church.

To Emma,
for being a part of my heavenly host,
as I have been part of her earthly host.

Acknowledgments
J ust as Emma surrounded herself with friends, assistants, and helpers, I have done the same. This is my host:
Chre Jones Clarke, Matthew C. Godfrey, Gordon & Lesli Goodman, Tammy Uzelac Hall, Rachel Killebrew, Elizabeth Kuehn, Brooke LeFevre, Dave LeFevere, Karen & Gary Norton, Frank Rolapp, Julie A. Russell, Mark L. Staker, and Angela Townsend have helped with research, revisions, source-checking, and overall excitement.
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints Church History Archive, the Joseph Smith Papers, the Community of Christ Library and Archive, and the 2019 Latter-day Saint Theology Seminar with the Maxwell Institute at Brigham Young University provided documents and perspectives.
Authors, both published and unpublished, have provided valuable insight and resources, and they deserve the highest of praises: Valeen Tippetts Avery and Linda King Newell, Richard L. Bushman, Vesta Crawford and her collection at the University of Utah, Ron Romig, Lori E. Woodland, and Buddy Youngreen.
And deepest gratitude to Miriam with her timbrels and drumsa priestess and a midwife.
