Title page first numbered page. Title page The title page of a book, thesis or other written work is the page at or near the front which displays its title, subtitle, author, publisher, and edition. (A half title, by contrast, displays only the title of a work.) The title page is one of the most important parts of the "front matter" or "preliminaries" of a book, as the data on it and its verso (together known as the "title leaf") are used to establish the "title proper and usually, though not necessarily, the statement of responsibility and the data relating to publication".
Book of the Law of the Lord witnesses of the plates were: Samuel Graham, Samuel P. Bacon, Warren Post, Phineas Wright, Albert N. Hosmer, Ebenezer Page and Jehiel Savage. Wright and Post served as apostles in Strang's church. Post wrote in his journal that the plates weighed approximately six pounds. Although some of these witnesses later left Strang's church, none of them is known to have ever denied their testimony as given in the Book of the Law. The subsequent history of Strang's "Plates of Laban," and their current whereabouts, is a mystery. The Book of the Law of the Lord was published in two separate editions
