Brick by Brick draws on personal writings and oral histories to tell the story of the beginnings and expansion of the Latter-day Saint faith in the British Isles through a unique lens: the places where its members worshipped from 1837 to 1965. Part I recounts how the Church became established in England, Scotland, Wales, and the Island of Ireland, where for decades fledgling branches had met in subpar conditions—from cramped tents and homes to rented rooms and halls. The interruption of two world wars posed additional challenges before the London England Temple was built, heralding a new era of growth and acceptance for the Church. Part II focuses on the Church Building Program of 1961–65, which oversaw a surge in chapel building throughout the Isles to serve rapid membership growth. The blend of historical research with moving elements of human interest gleaned from oral history interviews and archival research presents a unique perspective on how the Latter-day Saint faith community has grown, expanded, and developed over almost two centuries in the British Isles.
