In this second volume of Outstanding Stories, Leon Hartshorn has again made a truly artful selection of stories related by general authorities. Many of the stories bring a chuckle to the reader; others may bring a trace of a tear to the eye. There are stories of miraculous healings and conversions, and there are accounts praising the example of simple people who live the gospel from day to day and face difficulties with quiet courage. Frequently the stories call to mind the brethren who told them.
Among those quoted are Spencer W. Kimball, Marvin J. Ashton, Paul H. Dunn, and Hartman Rector, Jr.
The stories in this volume are not merely entertaining; they illuminate and illustrate gospel principles in action. These are stories that promote faith, and they can be used to enrich talks and lessons. All are stories that will be read again and again, making Outstanding Stories by General Authorities, Vol. 2, a valuable addition to any personal library.
