I learned a lot about Emma's life and got some questions about the end of her life answered.
She was an amazing woman and lived through some really tough circumstances. I learned great lessons from her example.
The author repeats a few things but that's not a big deal.
A concise history that can be read quickly.
From acting as a scribe for the translation of the Book of Mormon to founding the Relief Society, Emma Hale Smith was a key figure in the Restoration. She was also her husband's anchor and the love of his life. But how much do we really know about her role, teachings, and leadership?
Drawing upon letters written by Emma to Joseph and to many others, along with minutes from Relief Society meetings and other artifacts, this book sketches a more complete portrait of this elect lady. It allows each of us to become personally acquainted with Emma as we learn more about her essential work as a leader, a wife, and a mother in the early days of the Church.
