Emma Hale Smith
An Elect Lady

"She has been called 'a rare good woman,' and she has been called 'a liar.' She has been praised, and she has been vilified. Her name has evoked strong emotions, for and against her character. Her name was Emma Hale Smith and this is her story." Thus begins this fascinating talk on CD by historian and scholar Paul Thomas Smith. In this two-CD set, Brother Smith examines the extraordinary life of Emma, of whom the Lord said "thou art an elect lady." Drawing on hundreds of hours of research from countless sources, Brother Smith paints a picture of Emma that gives a greater insight into the experiences, the heartaches, and the influences that shaped her life. "I have come to love and appreciate Emma Hale Smith as a fearless, stalwart woman of great faith and courage who did the best she could do under the most trying of circumstances," says Brother Smith. "She was sealed up to eternal life with her husband the Prophet, and merits the Lord's choicest blessings."
