Produced by the Mormon Texts Project (MormonTextsProject.org)
"Biography and Family Record of Lorenzo Snow" by Eliza R. Snow is a historical account written in the late 19th century. This work offers an intimate portrayal of Lorenzo Snow, one of the Twelve Apostles of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, detailing his life, family, and the religious context of his upbringing. The book serves as a tribute from his sister, highlighting their family's journey of faith and its influence on Lorenzo's life and mission. The opening of the biography introduces Lorenzo Snow, born into a family of religious dissenters who faced hardships as they settled in Ohio. It discusses his early life, which was marked by a thirst for knowledge and a budding interest in military pursuits, before he is redirected towards the path of religious inquiry and ultimately the Mormon faith. His sister Eliza recounts significant moments that shaped his understanding of the Gospel, including his education, his baptism, and his transformative experiences in the Kirtland Temple, where he was involved in community faith practices and learned about the core beliefs of the early Latter-Day Saints. Through her narrative, readers gain insight into Lorenzo's character, his ambitions, and the challenges faced by his family in their pursuit of spiritual fulfillment.
