Presented to: Frank W. Fox
For: J. Reuben Clark: The Public Years
According to the judges, "J. Reuben Clark: The Public Years is a biography that moves 'beyond the adventure of the pioneer epic into the institutionalism of the twentieth century, beyond the isolation of the Great Basin into the coexistence with a nation of pluralities, beyond eulogy into candor. All this is done in clear but elegant language, creating a new classic in Mormon literature.'"
