(8vo) 9½x6½", dark blue full leather binding, silver stamping to spine and front cover, specially prepared keepsake inserted. Volume and keepsake both No. 6 of 50 signed and numbered copies. First Edition. Dale L. Morgan (1914–1971) remains one of the most respected historians of the American West—and his career, one of the least understood. Among today’s scholars his reputation rests largely on his studies of the fur trade and overland trails, yet throughout his life, Morgan’s primary interest was the history of the Latter Day Saints. In this volume—the first of a two-part set—Morgan’s writings on the Mormons finally receive the attention and analysis they merit. Dale Morgan on the Mormons is a far-reaching compilation of the historian’s published and unpublished writings. At the heart of the second volume is a newly corrected presentation of Morgan's unfinished magnum opus, "The Mormons." Edited and annotated by Richard L. Saunders, the collection includes not only essays but also book reviews and bibliographic studies, many published here for the first time. Lot Amendments Condition: Fine.
