Reconsidering No Man Knows My History Fawn M. Brodie and Joseph Smith in Retrospect

In 1945, Fawn M. Brodie wrote the first definitive biography of Joseph Smith, founder of the Mormon Church. For doing so she received both praise and condemnationand eventual excommunication. No other book on the Mormon prophet has entirely supplanted it to this very day. In Reconsidering "No Man Knows My History" Newell Bringhurst has compiled an impressive volume of original scholarship on Brodie and her biography of Joseph Smith. Reconsidering "No Man Knows My History" is essential reading for any student or scholar with an interest in Mormon history, western Americana, and literary biographical scholarship.Brighurst, Newell G. is the author of 'Reconsidering No Man Knows My History Fawn M. Brodie and Joseph Smith in Retrospect' with ISBN 9780874212143 and ISBN 0874212146.
