Fawn Mckay
Fawn Brodie McKay was born September 15, 1915, was born in Ogden Utah. Fawn MCKAY, who was raised in the Mormon First Family of the Church made use of her talent for writing and research abilities to create the intriguing biographical psycho-historical study of Joseph Smith. Published in 1945 under the title of No Man is a Master of My History, she used both. The title came from a funeral speech delivered by the founding father of the Church of Latter-Day Saints in 1844 when he startled people with a statement"You don't know me" and you've never known my heart. I don't know my history. I am not able to tell you. me to reveal it. Wrote the 29-year old Fawn at the time: Ever since that day of truth, at least three-score writers have stepped up to the plate. A few have attempted to claim that he is godlike or godlike, while some have claimed that he is an obfuscator. Some even tried the diagnosis of a medical condition. The problem is that there are no documents. They're contradictory. It is up to us to separate accounts from the third hand plagiarism and to fit Mormons' accounts with other religions to create the context of a credible historical narrative. It's a fascinating as well as educational journey. This is the kind of task to which Fawn Brodie dedicated herself professionally. Her work in research and writing brought fame throughout the world: Thaddeus Stephens. The Devil drives (1959). Thomas Jefferson. An Intimate The Story of Thomas Jefferson (1974) and later posthumously Richard Nixon.
