    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jul 3, 2001
    based on 61 ratings
     | 3,493 views

    I This day the noise of battle, the next the victory’s won. Or so the king hoped. Much was at stake. His own future was uncertain; the nation’s stability was shaky; the confidence of those around him was low; and, most of all, his relationship with his son was in jeopardy. There had been a ...read more
