Congratulations to Stephen L. Prince, whose Hosea Stout: Lawman, Legislator, Mormon Defender has won the 2017 Mormon History Association Book Award for Best Biography!
Hosea Stout witnessed and influenced many of the major civil and political events over fifty years of LDS history, but until the publication of his diaries, he was a relatively obscure figure to historians. Hosea Stout: Lawman, Legislator, Mormon Defender is the first-ever biography of this devoted follower who played a significant role in Mormon and Utah history.
