LDS scholar Matthew Brown discusses the history of Joseph Smith in his 2006 FAIR Conference address. In this section, he goes over the First Vision and the so-called "controversies" brought forth by critics of the Church, including the differening accounts. He also discusses the revivals of the area, which show Joseph Smith and Lucy Mack Smiths accounts to be accurate.
