THE LAND SHADOWING WITH WINGS



This little volume should have a strong appeal to young people who want to get the content of the Book of Mormon in action story form. It is not another book about the Book of Mormon; neither does it attempt to give archaeological or historic evidences in its support; it is the language and content of the Book of Mormon in simplified and abbreviated form.


The title of this book comes from a passage in the prophecy of Isaiah (18:1). A magazine artist added his imagination to simulate a bird with outspread wings, which is reproduced in the preface.
