About:
The United States turned a
blind eye when the Mormons were driven from Missouri to Illinois and
finally out of the country altogether. How can the government—and
Brigham Young—now be asking the Mormons to come up with 500 able-bodied
soldiers to assist in
the war with Mexico? And how can Will Lewis be asked to join the Mormon
Battalion when it means leaving Liz and their two little boys on their
own in the wilderness? How many sacrifices will be required in order for
the Saints to create Zion?
And
in modern-day Nauvoo, Jeff and Abby Lewis are facing challenges of
their own. Juggling family priorities, professional responsibilities,
and Church callings becomes an almost impossible feat. It is clear that
building Zion in the latter days will
require sacrifices, just as it did in the time of Jeff's ancestors.
In
this concluding volume of the Come to Zion trilogy, beloved novelist
Dean Hughes provides a unique perspective on the struggles and
sacrifices—and ultimate joy—of faithful Saints in any generation.

He has taught English at Central Missouri State University and Brigham Young University. Dean and his wife, Kathleen Hurst Hughes, served a mission to Nauvoo, Illinois.

Dean Hughes is a brilliant writer. His attention to detail was exquisite and you could tell he did his research on Nauvoo. I especially loved the Preface and Author's Note. He gave a review of the first two books and gave an explanation about Fresh Courage Take. I wish I could interview Hughes, however, I probably would be tongue tied if I had the opportunity.
