The Mountain Christians for the strength of the hills
Fiction, Juvenile Fiction
Mormon missionaries--Fiction;
James is only ten years old when the Mormon missionaries enter his beloved mountain homeland. A place where his family has lived since perhaps before the days of Christ and his apostles. Here they have practiced their religion free from outside interference for centuries.
How will James and his family respond to American preachers who bring news of a restored gospel to their Alpine farm?
A coming of age story, that follows ten year old James as he wrestles between the beliefs that his people have cherished for generations, and the new ideas being preached in their valleys.
