The third volume in this popular series chronicles the final week of the life of Jesus Christ in magnificent paintings and inspiring text. With pen and brush, author and artist combine talents to portray the triumphal entry of Jesus into Jerusalem, his sufferings for the sins of mankind, and his glorious resurrection. In so doing, they share a significant and marvelous account of the ministry of the Son of God. Author Susan Easton Black and artist Liz Lemon Swindle once again share an artistic narrative glimpse of the mortal ministry of Jesus Christ. They chronicle how he took upon himself the sorrows of humankind and overcame death. They depict familiar Bible scenes but also share a vision of Christ as a legend, a revolutionary, and a man who walked the earth and lived as part of his native community. King of Kings is ultimately a story of love, forgiveness, and redemption.

Best Book Award • Mormon History Association A brilliant young historian excavates the brief life of a lost Mormon city, uncovering a “grand, underappreciated saga in American history” (Wall Street Journal). In Kingdom of Nauvoo, Benjamin E. Park draws on newly available sources to re-create the founding and destruction of the Mormon city of Nauvoo. On the banks of the Mississippi in Illinois, the early Mormons built a religious utopia, establishing their own army and writing their own constitution. For those offenses and others—including the introduction of polygamy, which was bitterly opposed by Emma Smith, the iron-willed first wife of Joseph Smith—the surrounding population violently ejected the Mormons, sending them on their flight to Utah. Throughout his absorbing chronicle, Park shows how the Mormons of Nauvoo were representative of their era, and in doing so elevates Mormon history into the American mainstream.
