Fawn Mckay

Fawn McCay Brodie was was born at Ogden Utah September 15, 1915. She was a member of the Mormon Church's original family Fawn McKay was able to direct her innovative creative writing skills and impressive research skills to creating an amazing psycho-historical account of Joseph Smith, published in 1945, entitled The Only Man is able to know My History. The name was taken from the title of a sermon that Joseph Smith delivered in 1844, when he amazed his audience with the statement: You are not my friend and you have never heard my thoughts. Nobody knows my story. It's impossible to tell. Fawn wrote the 29-year-old Fawn. Since that moment, at least three writers have risen to the task. Some have rebuked him, while some have praised. A few have even made a diagnosis. The documents are not there, but the fact that they're contradictory. The process of collating these documents--of sifting first-hand account from third-hand plagiarism of fitting Mormon and non-Mormon accounts into a masterpiece that creates an authentic history. is exciting and enlightening. Fawn Brodie's life as a professional was committed to this cause. Thaddeus S. Stevens is immortalized in her work and the fruits of her study. "The Devil's Drive" (1959) The Scourge of South. The life of Sir Richard Burton (1967) Thomas Jefferson. Richard Nixon and An Intimate Historical History (1974).
