These Things I Know: the Autobiography of William Grant Bangerter

Now available.

As the description states, it is the full story in his words.  For those of us who served under his mission presidency his book shares with us the rest of his life, farming, WWII flight instructor in the early days of the Air Corps, marriage to Mildred and the sadness of her passing, home construction, then Geri bringing much to the Bangerter family and his subsequent LDS service in Brazil and throughout the world.  It is a personal history of a man who influenced our lives and served in many pioneering ways in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

These Things I Know: the Autobiography of William Grant Bangerter

by
William Grant Bangerter

The full story of Wm. Grant Bangerter is one of epic changes, nostalgic seasons, and golden eras. His life spanned many monumental, global changes: from the pre-penicillin era plagues of influenza to modern AIDS; from the economic collapse of 1929 and the Great Depression to prosperity of the latter 20th century; through world wars and conflicts, including "The Great War" (World War I), World War II (in which he was an active participant), Korea, Vietnam, the Gulf Wars and others. Each of these events and changes shaped and molded the world and enabled his character and attitudes to be a tower of strength for his friends, family and followers. Nostalgia for days long past, tempered by time from the harsh realities of day-to-day existence, surge up as sweet memories to soften those difficult days. The golden eras are often seen by succeeding generations as glorious and exciting, filled with adventures and tests, all leading to a crown of respect and honor for one so deserving.Hardcover, 567 pages
