Miracles in Printing the 1830 Book of Mormon
A couple of years ago, I was given a small booklet entitled Miracle on Palmyra’s Main Street. It was written by Gordon Weight, an “old-time” printer and current LDS institute teacher. Using his knowledge of printing, he retraces the events surrounding the printing of the 1830 Book of Mormon and explains the miracles that took place from a printer’s perspective.
Without going into much detail here about the content, I would absolutely recommend this booklet. It is an easy read and sheds an interesting light on the subject. In a more thorough discussion, Ph.D. scientist John Pratt reviews the book from a scientific perspective and “tests” the assumptions and conclusions of the author.

Hello. Where can one get a copy of this booklet at?
Great question, but I’m actually not sure. I believe the author passed away a few years ago. I have not been able to locate somewhere online where it can be purchased.
Perhaps you could call a few of the bookstores in Utah that may have a copy (Eborn’s Books, Sam Wellers, etc.)
