Microfilm of a record book kept by the Church Historian's Office tracing the early history of Mormon settlement in Utah, also referred to as history of Brigham Young (it may have been kept in Young's name). The volume opens with a section entitled "Early Records of Utah," which covers 1847-1851 and begins with Orson Pratt and Esratus Snow's arrival in Salt Lake City. Subsequent sections are entitled "Incidents in Utah History" (1852-1854) and Utah Historical Incidents (1855-1867). Topics covered include a history of the Mormon Church, history of Mormon settlement in Utah, establishment of political and religious councils, experiences of Church leaders, interactions with local Indians, and colonization missions.
