Fawn Mckay

Fawn Brodie McKay, born on the 15th of September 1915 was a native of Ogden Utah. She was a member of the Mormon Church's very first family, Fawn McKay was able to direct her innovative literary talents and remarkable researching skills in the creation of an amazing psycho-historical account of Joseph Smith, published in 1945 under the title The Only Man knows My History. The title was in response to a funeral address that was delivered by the Church of Latter-Day Saints founder Joseph Smith. In his sermon, he stated: "You do not know what I'm about and you've not seen my soul." My story is not known to anyone. No one knows my history. Fawn was a 29-year-old Fawn. From that point there have been at least three writers who have risen to this challenge. Many have mocked and denigrated him, while others have attempted to diagnose the issue. It isn't that there aren't enough documents however they're wildly inconsistent. It is a daunting task to put together these papers--of sorting first-hand information from a third-party copycatting of Mormon as well as non-Mormon stories into a masterpiece that creates an authentic history. This is exciting and informative. Such was the task to which Fawn Brodie devoted herself professionally. The fruits of her research as well as her writing earned her the world's attention: Thaddeus Stevens. The DevilDrives. Thomas Jefferson. Richard Nixon and An Intimate Historical History (1974).
