Latter-day Patriots : Nine Mormon Families and… by Gene Allred Sessions

There are some interesting stories of Revolutionary War figures who were the ancestors of prominent members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in this book. By the author's own admission, this isn't a scholarly book, but rather a collection of historical stories to give a sense of the heritage that the Mormon church carries from the inception of the United States of America.
