The first ten lectures in Leonard J. Arrington Mormon History Lecture Series are here collected in one volume for the first time. The series, established by one of the twentieth-century West’s most distinguished historians, Leonard Arrington, has become a leading forum for prominent historians to address topics related to Mormon history. The first lecturer was Arrington himself. He was followed by Richard Lyman Bushman, Richard E. Bennett, Howard R. Lamar, Claudia L. Bushman, Kenneth W. Godfrey, Jan Shipps, Donald Worster, Laurel Thatcher Ulrich, and F. Ross Peterson. Utah State University hosts the Leonard J. Arrington Mormon History Lecture Series. The University Libraries’ Special Collections and Archives houses the Arrington collection. The state’s land grant university began collecting records very early, and in the 1960s became a major depository for Utah and Mormon records.
