***PRELOVED/SECONDHAND*** The First Mormon temple

by Elwin C. Robison 

When the Mormon Saints dug the foundation trench for their first temple, only 150 members lived in Kirtland, Ohio. Despite a serious lack of manpower, proper equipment, and funds, they doggedly persisted in building and adorning "a house to the Lord." Both their struggles and their aspirations are recorded in the temple's structure and architecture.
