The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints made history this week — with its own history.
For the first time since 1930, it released an authorized, in-depth book that explores the faith’s past. “Saints: The Standard of Truth" is part of a four-volume set that will explore Mormonism from its humble birth to its current global presence.
