Fawn Mckay
Fawn Brodie McKay born on the 15th of September 1915 was a native of Ogden Utah. Fawn MCKAY, who was born into the Mormon Church's First Family employed her creative talents and research abilities to create the intriguing biographical psycho-historical study of Joseph Smith. Published in 1945 with the title: No Man is a Master of My History, she used both. The title of this book was in response to a funeral address delivered in 1844 by Church of Latter-Day Saints founder, Joseph Smith. In his sermon, he stated: "You do not know who I am and have not seen my soul." Nobody knows my past. It's impossible for me to reveal it. Fawn an older woman, aged 29 wrote: "Since that moment of honesty at least three scores writers have picked up the task." Many have abused him some have deified him; Some have tried their hands at diagnosing him. The problem isn't the fact that these documents lack information, however they're in complete contradiction. The process of assembling these documents, sifting through first-hand and third-hand sources and fitting the Mormons' stories to those of those of non-Mormons into a true time-line - is a thorny task. is exciting and enlightening. FawnBrodie devoted herself to the job. The results of her study as well as her writing earned her the world's attention: Thaddeus Stevens. The Scourge of Southern (1959) The Devil Drives. Thomas Jefferson. An intimate Historiography (1974) and later posthumously Richard Nixon.
