Publisher's Synopsis
Dan Jones is well known among members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints as a missionary in Wales. On the cover of this book and within Preach My Gospel, the Church's guide to missionary service, readers are greeted by Clark Kelley Price's painting Dan Jones Awakens Wales. The painting depicts Jones standing on a stonework platform addressing townspeople while boldily holding aloft the Book of Mormon. Mud and water cover the street, industiral chimneys belch smoke in the background, and the gathered onlookers range from gentle folk in fashionable attire to coal miners in their pit dirt. What is missing from the picture is what is abundantly revealed in this volume: the inner workings of the spirited mid-nineteenth-century struggle for the souls of the people of Wales.
