Review # 1 was written on 2020-08-24 00:00:00 Elmer Mollett It's a quick but fascinating look at the life of a German missionary living among the Native people in mid-Michigan in the 1840s. It's a great glimpse into how difficult life was for a German immigrant Lutheran missionary living among and ministering to the Native people near St. Louis, Michigan.

Review # 2 was written on 2021-02-20 00:00:00 Richard Johnson I thoroughly enjoyed reading a history on Joseph Smith by an author with the credibility of actually being there during several of the events talked about. Elder Cannon is both blunt and unapologetic for his love and devotion for Joseph Smith and the other early leaders of the church such as Brigham Young, John Taylor, Wilford Woodruff and others. He is equally blunt and unapologetic as he details the misdeeds of the enemies of the church. Whether the reader is LDS or not, you'll walk away with an appreciation for how loved Joseph Smith was by his people and how remarkable his journey truly was. This is a great read and one of my favorites now.
