"The story of John Rex Winder has been largely forgotten by the people and region he fought so hard to build up. Men of his nature do not have statues gracing the halls of public buildings, or even take up much space in the history books, when mentioned at all. Winder was a quiet, humble, unassuming man who did most of his work behind the scenes. Yet, his story is worth telling because of the many hats he wore in his long life and the ability with which he was able to perform every task assigned to him. His influence is noteworthy because of the men he counseled, the events he witnessed, and the testimony that he bore. Nonetheless, John R. Winder has heretofore been an historic anomaly in the annals of Church and Utah history. Despite his lack of publicity, however, this builder of the kingdom has a saga as interesting as other more famous LDS General Authorities." [Author's introduction]
