T. Edgar Lyon: A Teacher in Zion by T. Edgar Lyon, Jr.
Brother Lyon, along with Lowell Bennion, taught at the U of U Institute in its formative years and represented an early, liberal strand of the CES. Lyon and Bennion left the U of U under unpleasant circumstances in 1962. T. Edgar Lyon's story may not be for the generalist, but it captures important data points in the growth of CES and the dramatic changes that affected the Church throughout the twentieth century.
