Larry E. Morris is a writer and historian living in Salt Lake City, Utah. He received a B.A. in philosophy and an M.A. in American literature, both from Brigham Young University. Larry is the editor and compiler of A Documentary History of the Book of Mormon (Oxford University Press, 2019). He is also the author of The Fate of the Corps: What Became of the Lewis and Clark Explorers after the Expedition, a History Book Club selection favorably reviewed by such publications as The Wall Street Journal, the Seattle Post-Intelligencer, and Montana: The Magazine of Western History. Morris is one of six authors whose work on Lewis and Clark is recommended by Encyclopedia Britannica. Choice said Fate "ranks among the best books in the crowded world of Lewis and Clark hagiography." In his recent book In the Wake of Lewis and Clark, Larry complements the compelling story begun in The Fate of the Corps. He is also the author of The Perilous West: Seven Amazing Explorers and the Founding of the Oregon Trail (Starred Review from Library Journal) and co-author of The Mystery of John Colter: The Man Who Discovered Yellowstone (called a "definitive biography" by Booklist), both from Rowman & Littlefield. Morris has published three popular-history books with Deseret Book, the best-selling publisher in Utah. The 1959 Yellowstone Earthquake and Ernest Hemingway and Gary Cooper in Idaho: An Enduring Friendship were both published by the History Press. See his personal website at www.larrymorrisauthor.com
