“Northward, beyond the borders of the land of Zarahemla, lay an unnamed ‘land which was between the land Zarahemla and the land Bountiful.’ The place is mentioned only in 3 Nephi 3:23. (The line containing these words was omitted from the printed text for many years, apparently because of a typesetter’s error, but has been replaced in the 1981 edition of the Book of Mormon.) The land of Bountiful as a whole seems to have been quite narrow, since Alma 22:31–33 describes it mostly as a zone that ran across the narrow neck of land. Little more is said about it” (Sorenson, Ancient American Setting, 12).
