In 1920, David O. McKay embarked on a journey that forever changed the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. His visits to the Latter-day Saint missions, schools, and branches in the Pacific solidified the Church leadership's commitment to global outreach. As importantly, the trip inspired McKay's own initiatives when he later became Church president. McKay's account of his odyssey brings to life the story of the Church of Jesus Christ’s transformation into a global faith. Throughout his diary, McKay expressed his humanity, curiosity, and fascination with cultures and places--the Maori hongi, East Asian customs, Australian wildlife, and more. At the same time, he and his travel companion, Hugh J. Cannon, detailed the Latter-day Saint missionary life of the era, closely observing logistical challenges and cultural differences, guiding various church efforts, and listening to followers' impressions and concerns. Reid L. Neilson and Carson V. Teuscher's meticulous notes provide historical, religious, and general context for the reader.Blending travelogue with history, Pacific Apostle illuminates the thought and work of an essential figure in the twentieth-century Church of Jesus Christ.

This book examines the fathering practices of David O. McKay. When he was in the First Presidency of the Church and had children at home, as well as grandchildren, he embraced a new fatherhood where men were more nurturing and involved in their children's lives. He seemed to be ahead of the curve in his fathering style. This book shares President McKay's parenting approaches, inviting readers to learn from his best practices. There are no other books available with this focus of taking a contemporary fathering theory to take a closer look. The unique attraction of this book comes from how the author had extensive access to the journals of David O. McKay and found them to convey his deepest feelings, convictions, and experiences about parenthood.

During the 1950's and 1960's The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Mormon or LDS Church) experienced an unprecedented increase in mumbers and influence. The president of the Mormon Church during this period was David O. McKay. The author argues that the ideas stressed in McKay's General Conference addresses during this period were at least partially responsible for a more favorable public image being achieved for this heretofore rather unpopular, indigenous American Christian church.
