Spencer W. Kimball The Early and Apostolic Years

In 1943 the Lord called as an apostle an unassuming but energetic man who had lived his life in a small Arizona farming community. Thirty years later, Spencer W. Kimball became the twelfth president of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. This book tells his story, recounting his heritage, his high-spirited youth, his struggles and triumphs as businessman, family man, church man, and friend, and his intense, wide ranging service as a General Authority. The authors have drawn on journals, correspondence, interviews, and their personal relationships with President Kimball to produce a striking and candid account of his life and of the journey that took him to the presidency of the Church.
