Fawn Mckay

Fawn McKay was born 15 September 1915, in Ogden Utah. Fawn MacKay, a Mormon member of the Church Latter-Day Saints' first line of family she paired her dazzling ability to write and her remarkable research skills in order to publish the dazzling psychohistorical biographical work"No Man knows My History, which was released in 1945. The title comes from the funeral sermon preached by the founder of the Church of Latter-Day Saints in 1844 when he startled the congregation with his words: You don't know me I never told you about my heart. My past is not known to anyone. It is not possible for me to tell you. Fawn an older woman, aged 29 said: "Since that moment of candor, at least three writers have taken on the challenge." Numerous have accused him of being a liar, and others even deified him. While a small number have tried their luck at clinical diagnosis it is not so much that the documents are insufficient, but rather they're fiercely contradictory. The job of gathering these papers--of sorting first-hand information from third-hand plagiarism of fitting Mormon as well as non-Mormon stories into the kind of mosaic that can be considered to be credible history. This is a fascinating learning experience. This is the kind of task to which Fawn Brodie devoted herself professionally. Her research and writings brought her recognition around the globe: Thaddeus Stephens. The Devil drives (1959). Thomas Jefferson. An intimate History (1974) and posthumously Richard Nixon.
