User Review  - Troy - Goodreads

This book is magnificently researched and compiled. The level of detail is superb. I first read it in the 1990s and find it to be a resource that I cannot do without.

Review: The Life Of Christ

User Review  - Louise Hartvigsen - Goodreads

Often referred to in LDS speeches and articles. I found a copy of this online (it's in the public domain) and read it on my Ipad. Beautifully written. I enjoyed reading the final part the week of Easter.
