Welcome to the Big Picture of the Book of Mormon

The Book of Mormon contains numerous references to lands, cities, rivers, seas, wildernesses, and other geographic locations. While readers often focus on the people and events of the record, Mormon also provided many geographic details that help us understand how these locations relate to one another.

This project brings those descriptions together into a single visual guide. By examining the lands and locations Mormon described, readers can better understand the geographic setting of the Book of Mormon and see the larger picture that emerges from the text.

The maps and diagrams in this series are intended as study aids to help readers visualize Book of Mormon geography and explore the lands Mormon described.
