Cannon is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The book chronicles the life of Joseph Smith, founder of the Latter-day Saint movement, detailing his early experiences, revelations, and the trials he faced in his quest to restore the Gospel.

The opening of the work sets the stage for an exploration of Joseph Smith’s life, emphasizing his humble beginnings and the profound spiritual experiences that shaped his mission. The preface speaks to the enduring legacy of Smith and his brother Hyrum, highlighting their martyrdom and the misconceptions surrounding them. As the narrative progresses, it introduces key themes such as the religious fervor of the early 19th century, the significant challenges faced by Smith and his family, and the divine revelations that directed the foundation of his faith.
