When Winifred Graham died in 1950 she claimed the distinction of having published more books than any other living British authoress--88 works including 6 anti-Mormon pieces. Today her work is all but forgotten except for her role in the anti-Mormon crusade. 'Thus, as a crusader, as well as a perpetrator of some of the most scurrilous and damaging of anti-Mormon images in England, Graham is a figure who deserves serious attention.' (p. 108) Thorp concludes that Graham was reacting to the rapid transformation of British society, where 'attitudes toward women, marriage, sex and the home during the Edwardian age' were in flux. The authoress's attack on Mormonism was her conservative reaction to a society in rapid change.
