Undeterred, he began to practice his handwriting until it was beautiful. This dedication helped him to earn money by writing greeting cards, wedding cards and legal documents.

He was an excellent example of dedication and determination. This biography by Bryant S. Hinckley highlights the life of this great leader and is sure to be a cherished addition to any library.
