Description Concering Books All Is Well (The Work and the Glory #9)

All Is Well, the powerful and moving ninth volume of the series The Work and the Glory, brings to a close the Restoration-era portion of this epic story. It follows the fictional Steed family from June 1846 to October 1847 as they participate in some of the most pivotal and dramatically charged events in Church history, including the migration of the Saints from the banks of the Missouri River to the Valley of the Great Salt Lake.

As this volume opens, the Steeds have been scattered — and the family is only split up further as the story unfolds. Will and Alice's voyage aboard the Brooklyn nears its end as the ship approaches the California shore. Peter and Kathryn continue their journey westward in the Donner-Reed party. In Nauvoo, Melissa and Carl find their situation growing increasingly dangerous and their marriage more and more strained. Other Steed family members are temporarily encamped at the Missouri River, where the Saints will set up winter quarters. When the United States government, at war with Mexico, calls for five hundred Mormon volunteers to form a battalion, some of the Steeds march with that battalion in its history-making trek across the continents. Meanwhile, other family members become part of the pioneer companies that, at last, establish in the West a place of refuge for the Saints.

As with the previous books in the series, this volume is populated with a host of interesting characters, both fictional and historical. And even though throughout most of the story the Steeds are separated from one another, hope remains that somehow all of them will be reunited, and with the rest of the Saints they will make the chorus swell: “All is well! All is well!”

Criticize Appertaining To Books All Is Well (The Work and the Glory #9)

Not my favorite of the series, but still an epic tale. This story has Steeds all over the place as they make their way to the Great Salt Lake valley. I felt like there were too many things going on, so we didn't get to spend enough time with anyone. Although the events of the Donner-Reed tragedy were fascinating, I think eliminating them from the story might have tightened things up a bit. The writing is still over the top much of the time, but I still LOVE this story, and I love this Steed

Wow, I finished the series. Yay for me.Book 9 starts in June of 1846 and goes until mid-October of 1847. It's a really long book for such a short amount of time, and really nothing signifacant except for, oh, everyone arriving in the Salt Lake Valley. I guess that's pretty significant. In this book, the rest of the Donner tragedy unfolds. The Saints from the Brooklyn landed in San Fransisco Bay, work for a time, and head to the Salt Lake Valley. Brigham Young went with a vanguard company on

The five star rating on this series is based on the historical content and the research the author did to portray events. His writing wasn't my favorite. Poor character development for one..they all had the same personalities eventually. But I enjoyed reading the history between the lines. Loved the scriptures referenced. The story brought the restoration of the church to life in my mind.

It's almost like Lund got sick of these books about 3/4ths of the way through, because he has ridiculous, long asides and details and then suddenly in 200 pages they go from Winter Quarters to Salt Lake bing bang boom.

This book was amazing! It had sad parts, spiritual parts, and happy parts that i laughed out loud at. I would HIGHLY suggest it.

I just finished the ninth (and last) book of this series, called "All is Well."Overall, the series is pretty good. They're long books but fast and easy to read. Pros: I learned a whole lot of stuff about church history. The author is also kind enough to tell you at the end of each chapter which parts were true and which parts were fictional. Cons: The writing is fair at best, with a lot of repetition, especially in the first few books of the series. (It's like in "Harry Potter 3" when J. K.

I was told this was the most boring one of the series. I found this final volume be as good as many other volumes int he series and a fitting end to it. I still wanted more when it was over. Despite being raised in and being an active member for the majority of my life, i came to find out there was so much that i didn't know or didn't have correct in my understanding. I recommend this series to any church member or person wanting to know more about what the LDS faith is about. Fantastic series.
