Come to Zion! Such was the call that led early Latter-day Saints from all walks of life to leave behind family friends, and the comforts of home a make a long, arduous journey to a new land of promise. That journey, and the many stories of those who embarked upon it, is brought to vivid life in this engaging talk by noted author and historian Richard Neitzel Holzapfel. Who relays stories of courageous pioneers as recorded in their diaries and other documents. "Celebrating the past forges a link between people and generations and helps us understand and appreciate that which is common in our lives," he states.
