Fawn Mckay
Fawn McKay was born on 15 September 1915 in Ogden Utah. Born into the Mormon Church's very first family, Fawn McKay devoted her brilliant literary talents and remarkable abilities in research to create an amazing psycho-historical account of Joseph Smith, published in 1945 under the title"No Man Knows My History. The title was in response to a funeral address given in 1844 by the Church of Latter-Day Saints founder, Joseph Smith. In that sermon he said: "You do not know the person I am, and have never met my soul." My story is not known to anyone. No one knows my history. I wrote the 29-year-old Fawn at the time: Ever since this moment of honesty, at least three-score writers have taken up the challenge. Some have deified and abused his character, whereas others have attempted to diagnose the problem. There isn't a problem the case that there's not enough documentation however they're wildly inconsistent. It is a matter of separating first-hand testimony from third hand plagiarism and fitting Mormon-and non-Mormon-narratives into a coherent theology. This is exciting as well as informative. Fawn Brodie's life as a professional was devoted to this aim. The results of her study and writing made her immortalized with the world's attention: Thaddeus Stevens. "The Devil's Road" (1959) The Slaughter of the South. Thomas Jefferson. Richard Nixon, An Intimate historiography (1974), posthumous.
