Abstract

I received the BYU Studies special issue on President Kimball (vol. 25, no. 4) with great anticipation but was disappointed to see that both Dennis L. Lythgoe's and Eugene England's articles repeat a common myth existing in Mormondom about recent growth in number of missionaries. In opting to publish these two articles, BYU Studies only adds to this general misunderstanding and distortion.
