Unique among books released by Mormon publishing houses, Eric Shuster's "Catholic Roots Mormon Harvest," will appeal to Catholics as much as it will interest members of the The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

Subtitled "A Story of Conversion and 40 Comparitive Doctrines," the Cedar Fort release chronicles the conversion of lifelong Catholics Eric and Marilyn Shuster to Mormonism. It also discusses the similar and contrasting aspects of the two faiths.

The devoutly Catholic couple began investigating the church a few years into their marriage, and despite their upbringings and Marilyn's stint as a Franciscan nun, the Shusters were eventually baptized.
