Question
Hi,
I came across something with the abbreviation of HC on the LDS website, and found out that it refers to "History of the Church". I was wondering if you could tell me what this book is, as I have not been able to find anything else about it.
Thank you

Answer
Hello Julie, thanks for your question. The book with 7 volumes, The History of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, was first published in 1902. Here is a website that has the entire set (seven volumes) available for purchase so you can see what they look like:

Also, here is another website for you to visit about the HC:

Take care and thanks for your question!
