H. Roberts is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The work details the harrowing experiences of early members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints as they faced systemic persecution in Missouri and Illinois from 1830 to 1838. The book aims to illuminate the challenges they encountered and to correct various misconceptions surrounding their expulsion from these regions. The opening of the text serves as a preface where the author articulates his motivations for writing this account, emphasizing the importance of preserving the history of the persecutions for future generations of the Latter-day Saints. Roberts aims to present a comprehensive narrative to counteract the misrepresentations that have persisted over time about the church's early struggles. He reflects on the significance of understanding this history not only to honor the sacrifices made by their ancestors but also to strengthen the faith and connection of subsequent generations to the core tenets of their beliefs.
