"The Book of Mormon is the `keystone' of our religion," President Ezra Taft Benson emphasized in an address given at April 1987 general conference. "And the Doctrine and Covenants is the capstone."

In this book about the `capstone' of the LDS religion, editors Robert L. Millet and Larry E. Dahl focus on the history, doctrines and themes of modern-day revelation found in the Doctrine and Covenants.The first chapter focuses on the background and history of the Doctrine and Covenants, while subsequent chapters discuss the law of consecration, the new and everlasting covenant of marriage, the priesthood, the establishment of Zion, and the Second Coming. - KR
