A Land of Promise and Prophecy: Elder A. Theodore Tuttle in South America, 1960 - 1965
by Mark L. Grover
The period 1960 - 1965 was key to the evolution of the Church because it represented a significant adjustment in approach and direction, particularly from Church headquarters in Salt Lake City.
This history focuses on the personalities and programs of the mission presidents and their wives with particular emphasis on Elder A. Theodore Tuttle because the changes that occurred during the period were the product of these men and women.
Though the nucleus of the book is Elder Tuttle's activities, it is not a biography of him but an examination of the history of the Church in South America during these five years.
Each mission in South America is discussed in relation to Elder Tuttle's efforts and some of the issues and concerns of the time.
