Scope and Contents

Jensen, professor emeritus at Utah State University in Logan, Utah, describes himself as an "old, cold cynic," but his letters to Brodie are articulate, witty, full of good humor, and sprinkled liberally with quotes from Byron, Kipling, and Twain. Two of the letters are copies, one he sent to Dr. Wells Jakeman, an archaeologist at Brigham Young University, about the factual base of the Book of Mormon, and the other to Preston Nibley, mostly about his nephew Hugh Nibley.
