LeGrand Richards (1886–1983)

A good look at what I would consider Mormonism 101. A little dated, but still very applicable and a must read for LDS people and others who are interested in learning more about the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

Good book on LDS basics. Read it just before mission

Great missionary treatise. Always good to have some basic knowledge.

Books have been an important part of my life and this one is no exception. It is the the book, given our family by Temple Square tour guide, Arthur Bishop, on a visit to Salt Lake City in 1958. It, more than any other book, played a role in my mother's personal conversion to Moromonism the following year.
