"Honoring Juanita Brooks"
by Douglas D. Alder, Ph.D.
Published by the Dixie State University Press, October 2014
This book contains the first 30 Juanita Brooks Lectures. These lectures were endowed by Obert C. Tanner to honor Mrs. Brooks and are given by major scholars on subjects that would have been of interest to her. The lectures started in 1984 and for some time now have been given in March of each year in the St. George Tabernacle. They are very interesting and highly informative for any one interested in the history of southern Utah.
