At the Pulpit showcases the tradition of Latter-day Saint women's preaching and instruction by presenting 54 speeches given from 1831 to 2016, with selections from every decade since the founding of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

I'll admit that I read about this book and scoffed. It did not sound like my cup of tea. But then I was at the library, checking the returned books for damage, and I saw the name of Lucy Mack Smith on the cover. Now Lucy has always seemed to me a plucky little spitfire so, I thought, why not?
Obviously, by the rating, I liked it. But not really for the early stuff. Too many of those entries were just meeting minutes which are decidedly out of style and remind me of my job. But I liked the short bios at the beginning and, once we got to women who liked to talk, it was fascinating. Sister Bennion, Talmage (don't remember her married name) and Buschze(?) were very unique, spirited, and thoughtful. Glad I tried it. ( )
