Stand As a Witness by Anita Thompson
This is a biography of Ardeth G. Kapp (a prominent member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints). She was the Young Women's General President back when I was a teenager, so it was interesting to read more about her. She has had a remarkable life (not dead yet - if anyone writes a bio on me, I had better be dead first). I was intrigued by her and her husband's struggle with infertility, and how they dealt with it. Thompson writes a very kind biography - almost too kind. Surely Kapp had some faults! Thompson also seems to belong to those who hesitate to mention "delicate" matters. When explaining that Kapp was having major surgery, she cannot bring herself to say what kind, although the reader can deduce it was a hysterectomy! Gasp!
