Fawn Mckay

Fawn McKay Brodie was born in Ogden Utah on September 15 1915. Born into the Mormon Church's original family Fawn McKay directed her ingenious literary talents and remarkable abilities in research to create the brilliant psycho-historical biography of Joseph Smith, published in 1945. The book was titled No Man is able to know My History. The title comes from the funeral sermon delivered by Joseph Smith who was the founder of The Church of Latter-Day Saints. The preacher shocked the audience when he said declaring: "You don't even know my name. It's been a long time since you've seen my feelings." No one has ever known about my past. It's impossible to tell. Fawn (29 year old) stated that in the time since her moment of candor the three hundred and thirty writers have stood up to the event. Some have attacked him, while others have glorified him. a few have attempted to make a diagnostics. It's not the fact that these documents lack information, it is rather that they're in complete contradiction. Assembling these documents - sorting through third- and first-hand sources, and integrating Mormons' narratives to other people's time-line - is a thorny task. This is exciting and informative. This is the kind of task to which Fawn Brodie committed herself professionally. Thaddeus Steves was a world fame due to her work in research as well as her work. The Devil's Drive (1959) The Southern Scourge. Thomas Jefferson. Richard Nixon and An Intimate Historical History (1974).
