Thy gold to refine
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
Incredible continuation of the Steed family sojourns into the West during the mid-1800's. What a writer, he combines history and a fictional family with wonderful precision and believability. Very enjoyable reading.
Incredible - It'll change you forever.

I had never before understood the true hardships that the early Saints had gone through, as well as the ramifications that their faith has on me, as a Saint today. I am free to worship as I please because of their sacrifice - a sacrifice I did not understand until I read this book in the series.
Best of the series!!

This is by far the most emotional volume out of the series. It takes you into the persecutions of the Saints and does not let you forget the pain and suffering they endured. It is also an emotional time for the fictional family, which still brings me to tears when I read it. I love this series!! I highly recommend it!!!
Painful to read
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
This book takes you though the short and painful period of time the Mormons spent in Missouri, including the massacre at Hauns Mill, Liberty Jail, and the infamous extermination order issued by the governor of Missouri. Mr. Lund writes these events through the eyes of both the victims and the people causing the suffering. Terrific documentation of actual events also. Highly recommended!
The Best of the Work and the Glory Series
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
The book was definately the best of the Work and the Glory series. It takes you through the difficult trials of Missouri and the exodus to Illinois and allows you to emotionally connect with all of the characters as they face their difficult challeges. None of the other books in the series, although enjoyable, contain the emotional impact that this one delivers.
