"The publication of the Book of Mormon in 1830 began a new scriptural tradition. Resisting the long-established closed biblical canon, the Book of Mormon posited that the Bible was incomplete and corrupted. With a commitment to an open canon, a variety of Latter Day Saint denominations have emerged to offer their own scriptural works to accompany the Bible, the Book of Mormon, and other revelations of Joseph Smith. Open Canon: Scriptures of the Latter Day Saint Tradition's chapters will introduce readers to scripture dictated by nineteenth century revelators James Strang, William Bickerton, Lucy Mack Smith, Charles B. Thompson, and Sidney Rigdon and scripture dictated by twentieth century revelators Matthew Philip Gill, Harry Edgar Baker, Maurice Glendenning, and Denver Snuffer. Other chapters detail how different Latter Day Saint denominations have responded to those scriptures introduced during the ministry of Joseph Smith. How have the churches of the Restoration responded to the Book of Mormon, the Doctrine and Covenants, and the Lectures on Faith in the nearly two hundred years since they were introduced? Open Canon is the first volume of its kind asking what we can learn about Latter Day Saint resistance to the closed canon and the nature of a new American scriptural tradition by bringing in studies across denominational boundaries"--
