The history books tell us of many long wars; but as Mark E. Petersen stresses in this book, the longest and most significant war is still going on. It is the struggle for the souls of men which Lucifer began in heaven. While no one is immune from the pressures of the longest war, that book makes clear that each can win his personal victory if he understands and loves the Savior's way and resolutely follows it.
Good. Dated. It's full of good principles and is well written. However, all the things it warns about are still issues, what's more, they're WORSE generally than they were when this was written in 1974. I feel like current Conference talks and current apostles' writings will be more helpful today. It has some details about church history that are interesting and useful, but also available elsewhere. Good if you find it but don't run out and buy it.
