LDS Author Dean Hughes Marks His 100th Published Book

Utah author Dean Hughes’ first published book was for children. Titled "Under the Same Stars," it was about the early members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Jackson County, Mo., near where Hughes and his family were living at the time in 1979.

This year, his 100th book, “Through Cloud and Sunshine” (Deseret Book, $25.99), the second volume in the Come to Zion series, rolled off the presses.

“It’s been a way to make a living that I’ve loved,” Hughes said of writing.

The 70-year-old author doesn’t have plans to stop writing.
