When the Saints Came Marching In: A History of the Latter-day Saints in St. Louis, Missouri

Fred Woods and Thomas Farmer have created a masterpiece in When the Saints Came Marching In. This book covers the time Mormon missionaries first set foot on St. Louis soil (1831) until the occasion of the St. Louis Stake jubilee in 2008.

It is written with gratitude for the tolerant spirit manifested by the city of St. Louis both then and now.

For some, the St. Louis Arch represents not only a gateway to the West but also a symbol of acceptance and brotherhood, through which peoples of all cultures and faiths can pass with the assurance of mutual respect.
