Abstract The Richard Tracey Wootton papers (1960-2000) consist of research material, surveys, and correspondence related to his book Saints and Scientists, which presents evidence that Utah is foremost in the U.S. in production of scientists, and argues that the LDS faith is largely responsible for that fact. Richard Tracey Wootton (b. 1918) has dedicated his life to education, related administrative work, and the LDS Church.
