Ellen White (November 26, 1827 – July 16, 1915) was a prolific author, writing more than 40 books and 5000 periodical articles during her lifetime. Today there are over one hundred titles available, due to posthumous compilations made from the approximately 50,000 manuscript pages of her writings. She was one of the founders of the Seventh-day Adventist Church, believed by many readers to have the spiritual gift of prophecy described in the Bible.

Books

Information includes title, date of first publication, publisher, edition, pages, and common abbreviation of the book title. Derived from The bibliography of the complete published Ellen G. White writings on compact disc. The majority of these are compilations made by others after her death in 1915.

Contemporary adaptations

Because many younger readers report finding the original language old-fashioned and hence challenging to read, several modern adaptations of White's books have been produced which update and simplify the language. Editors have tried to preserve the original meaning.[12]

  • Messiah by Jerry D. Thomas, an adaptation of The Desire of Ages. Pacific Press; publisher's page
  • Blessings by Jerry Thomas, from Thoughts From the Mount of Blessings. Pacific Press; publisher's page
  • A Call to Stand Apart, an adaptation and compilation of various topics

Adaptations of the 5-volume "Conflict of the Ages" series have been commissioned by the General Conference to complement the Cornerstone Sabbath School lessons in 2007–2011. They are aimed at younger readers:

  • The Beginning of the End, an adaptation of Patriarchs and Prophets. Pacific Press; publisher's page
  • Royalty and Ruin, an adaptation of Prophets and Kings. Pacific Press; publisher's page
  • Humble Hero, an adaptation of The Desire of Ages. Pacific Press; publisher's page
