Mary, you haven't expressed your opinion regarding
Brodie's foray into the Joseph Smith's biographical
history. However, one aspect of the cautionary
epistle you criticize is the very point the author
is trying to make. You didn't appreciate his
assumptions, neither does a historian appreciate
Brodie's unfounded assumptions, nor her historical
fallacies.
