Fawn Brodie's book is easily obtainable on Amazon
http://www.amazon.com/No-Man-Knows-My-History/dp/0679730540In each chapter Professor Brodie lays out and references the facts as they were known in 1945. The years have not been kind to Mormon truth claims so if anything the evidence has become much stronger since Brodie completed her work.
At the end of each chapter she summarizes and then in my opinion creates a chink in her armour by theorizing conclusions. I wish she had separated fact from her theory a little better. In each case I believe she gives the most logical explanation but there is always that little gap between what we know to be fact and then what she puts for as conclusions. In each case she's probably right, but it does create that window for TBM's to criticize.
