It is October of 1838 as a volunteer cavalry of Mormons gather in
the woods. Ill-prepared for battle, they organize as best they can
to face hundreds of mobbers who, with the governor's support, have
besieged the people of DeWitt, Missouri. With supplies running low,
members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints are
starving. But there is a bright light amid the darkness of despair:
the cavalry's distinguished leader, Seymour Brunson. As Major
Brunson leads his nervous soldiers into battle with the mobbers, he
reassures them that God is on their side. Buoyed by courage and
determination, the soldiers defend the DeWitt Saints-until they are
all betrayed. But all is not lost as Brunson evades his captors and
bravely helps the Saints find safety in Illinois. A Lively Stone is
an engaging story of action, heroism, and love based on true events
that chronicle the life of an important leader of the Church of
Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
