Explanation Supposing 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!”

Write-Up Containing Books All Is Well (The Work and the Glory #9)

It feels good to finally be done with the series! This book was quite long due to the many perspectives. The most interesting story lines were the Donner-Reed Party and the last Saints to leave Nauvoo. Both, of course, were very sad, but I learned a lot about important historical events. I had no idea there were still armed conflicts in Nauvoo even after Brigham Young and the main group of pioneers left. And because Gerald Lund chose to focus on the Reeds rather than the Donners, we only heard

Generally upbeat even with the Donner party, this was really just a very long epilogue to the rest of the series. This one is more history than story, since most of the conflict in the family was resolved by the end of book 8 and this book exists just to get everyone to Utah. I found my eyes glazing over as the enormous Steed clan drifted here and there, not really doing anything important. There's no character development, very little plot, and just a lot of movement. I'm glad I read this

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

What an excellent finish!! This story was tied up very well, as much as I wanted MORE of his skillful works of art.

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 agree with other reviews that this book had almost too much going on. There were members from the Steed family all over the place and that kind of became confusing. It was nice to read the history about all the different ways that the Saints traveled before getting to the Salt Lake Valley though. I was also a little disappointed that so much history was covered about their journey to Winter Quarters but then after that it seemed like the author was just trying to sum up the rest and finish the

The United States of America is the country founded by seekers of freedom from oppressive governments. But did you know the Mormon Church, born on April 6th, 1830 in New York State, was forced with violence from New York, to Ohio, to Missouri, to Illinois, and ultimately west across the plains and over the Rocky Mountainsbecause of their beliefs? The governor of Missouri actually issued an official declaration that all Mormons were to be driven from the state or exterminated. It has always been
