Master's thesis

"It is my purpose in this study to determine the characteristics of and to arrive at an estimate of the literary value of the prose fiction produced by Mormon writers and published in Mormon periodicals between the years 1900 and 1945." [Author]
The author's conclusion is that most Latter-day Saint fiction from the study period is plain, didactic, and sentimental, lacking literary value.
