  Modern Moses, Prophet of God - What kind of man was Brigham Young? Some have called him the greatest colonizer of all time, a modern Moses who brought the latter-day children of Israel out of the bondage of persecution. Some know him as a prophet, who saw in vision holy temples and the glorious destiny of his followers in the Rocky Mountains. He was both of these, and more. Author Francis M. Gibbons paints a grand panorama of the great events of Brigham's life: his conversion to the Church, his ministry under the Prophet Joseph Smith, his management of the exodus to the West, and his Church and government leadership. But he also reveals Brigham's human side: his childhood in New England, his work as a painter and glazier, his love for dancing and drama, his dress and diet, his spirituality, his family life, and his final days. "To mention Moses and Brigham Young in the same breath," writes the author, "to compare their attributes and work, or to ascribe their qualities of character to each other, is a compliment to both." This book provides an in-depth look at the personality and achievements of one "like unto Moses," one of the world's finest leaders—Brigham Young: modern Moses, prophet of God.
