I wrote a paper (78pages, if I remember correctly) on the economic impact of camp meetings on their communities during the Great Depression. As all budding historians, I thought I had discovered unique and valuable information. What I had discovered is a unique and valuable way to put people to sleep. I got an A, but I had a feeling my advisor skimmed a lot!

My best paper was on the Mountain Meadows Massacre, where Mormons attacked and killed a wagon train headed to California. Very exciting and horrific stuff. No one fell asleep reading that one!

That second one definitely sounds like an interesting read.

And attempts by Mormon hierarchy to hide documents, downplay events, blame it on Native Americans and exonerate Brigham Young have been shocking.
