Description
"Restless Pilgrim features clear prose, meticulous research, and a high standard for accuracy and context. The authors narrate Jenson's globetrotting quest for documents and his efforts to systematize the preservation of local records. This penchant for record-keeping has been an incalculable gift, not just to church members but to historians of American religion more generally."--John G. Turner, author of The Mormon Jesus: A Biography and Brigham Young: Pioneer Prophet
