Fire on Ice: The Saints of Iceland captures the compelling history surrounding the conversion, emigration and assimilation of the early Icelandic Latter-Day Saints. This remarkable story of faith, courage and sacrifice highlights the 415 pioneers that left their homeland between 1855 and 1914 and the powerful legacy they left behind.
On June 25th, 2005, 150 years after the arrival of the first Icelander Samúel Bjarnason, a Memorial in Spanish Fork was erected and dedicated by President Gordon B. Hinckley in honor of these early pioneers.
Featured interviews include the President of Iceland, Ólafur R. Grimsson, prominent Icelandic Historians Gunnar Karlsson and Jonas Thór, as well as many of today's Icelandic Latter-Day Saints.
