Angus Belliston's understanding and appreciation of the Book of Mormon has come simply from reading it and hearing it taught over a lifetime. His hope in writing is to share some insights about the prophet Mormon that will add to our appreciation for this great man and for the book he helped bring to us - the Book of Mormon.

Mr. Belliston is a retired banker and has served the Church as a teacher, bishop, stake president, regional representative, mission president, and as a counselor in temple presidencies. He and his wife, Jenny, reside in Provo, Utah. They are the parents of eleven, the grandparents of thirty-nine, and the great-grandparents of eleven.
