Cover slightly rubbed and edge worn. Red; J. Golden Kimball, son of the pioneer leader and Apostle Heber C. Kimball.

But at 28 the higher way opened when, under the spell of the great Karl G. Maeser’s inspired words, he glimpsed the vision of what education and Gospel development could offer. In that moment of opportunity, heredity and childhood training asserted themselves, and ambition caught fire. Henceforth only the higher way was acceptable.
