Hugh B. Brown, his life and thought
Used Book in Good Condition
While the worldwide Church knows the erect, eloquent Hugh B. Brown from his twenty-two years as a General Authority, few previously knew the details of his fascinating story. The authors have brought it all to life--the humble beginnings; the years in Canada; the military experiences; the local Church callings; the struggle to carve out a career; the political aspirations; the British Mission experience; the BYU professorship; the reach for affluence in Canadian gas and oil; the Church call which would eventually take him into the First Presidency. Writings and speeches illustrate his breadth of thought. He is shown as a good family man. And as a Hugh B. Brown/Zina Y. Card love story of nearly seventy years' mortal duration, the book presents a true romance of unusual dimensions. Throughout is graphically portrayed not merely the joys and successes but the struggles and stresses, the hardships and heartaches, which sustained the "currant bush" theme--President Brown's favorite story of God's pruning process.
