Life of Heber C. Kimball, good book, great testimony builder

I am not a life long member of the church so I did not have a great background in the early history of the church. A friend recommended that I read the Joseph Smith bio by his Mother, Lucy Mack Smith, the Arrington Bio of Brigham Young, this book on Heber C. Kimball, the Wilford Woodruff bio and the book, "Men With A Mission" which is about the Quorum of the 12's mission to the British Isles. These books will give you a solid background on the early history of the church and the great missionary work done by the 12 from 1838-1841. It will also build your testimony by giving you some solid examples of great spiritual events. I hope this helps and if you have any questions you can contact me @ wmj0976@yahoo.com
