"If something isn't aesthetically pleasing or interesting, doesn't require skills I do not have, and makes a stupid point stupidly, I don't appreciate it as art. That doesn't make me a philistine. It makes me a non-rube."

The One with Know Them Which Labor Among You

66. Title & Author: Know Them Which Labor Among You: Biographies of the First Presidency and the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles published by BYU Acadmeic Publishing (82 pages)
Genre: Nonficiton--Religion, LDS
Completed: 25 November 2008

Summary & Review:
This book includes short biographies of all fifteen current, living members of the First Presidency (pictured) and the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles including Presidents Monson, Eyring, Uchtdorf, and Packer, and Elders Perry, Nelson, Oaks, Ballard, Wirthlin, Scott, Hales, Holland, Bednar, Cook, and Christofferson.

I really enjoyed learning about these amazing men. They come from such different backgrounds and professions, but all of them have their calling in common to be witnesses of Jesus Christ. The biographies where short, but they were good basic introductions.
