Fawn Mckay

Fawn Brodie McKay, born September 15, 1915, was born in Ogden Utah. Fawn MCKAY, raised in the Mormon First Family of the Church, utilized her writing talent as well as skills in researching to produce the fascinating psycho-historical biographical biography of Joseph Smith. Published in 1945, under the name No Man Knows My History, she used both. This title is derived from the funeral sermon preached by the founding father of the Church of Latter-Day Saints in 1844, when he shocked those he addressed with the words"You don't know me" I never told you about my heart. My past is not known to anyone. I'm not able to tell my story. The 29-year-old wrote Fawn after that day of truth, at least three-score writers have taken up the gauntlet. A few have denigrated and used Fawn, while others attempt to identify the problem. The problem isn't the case that there's not enough documentation however they're wildly contradictions. It is a daunting task to put together these papers--of sorting first-hand information from third-party plagiarism that is able to fit Mormon and non-Mormon narratives into the kind of mosaic that can be considered to be credible historiography. It is fascinating and informative. Such was the task to which Fawn Brodie committed herself professionally. Her work in research and writing brought fame throughout the world: Thaddeus Stephens. The Devil Drives (1959) Scourge Of The South Thomas Jefferson. An Personal History of Richard Nixon (1974), in posthumously.
