Scope and Contents

January 7, 1946-Morgan indulges in "psychologizing" at some length about the reason Brodie wrote about Joseph Smith. "I have an idea that you haven't come full circle yet in liberating yourself from the church. You have an intellectual but not yet emotional objectivity about Mormonism .... Your book was written out of an emotional compulsion . . . writing Joseph's biography was your act of liberation and of exorcism."
May 15, 1946-Discusses the Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, Hugh Nibley's pamphlet "No Ma'am, That's Not History," and his own progress on his book The Great Salt Lake.
