He was also a prolific popularizer among Latter-day Saints (Mormons) of their theology. A notable anti-communist and supporter of the John Birch Society,〔Skousen, W. Cleon (1963), ''The Communist Attack on the John Birch Society''. Belmont, MA: American Opinion. 8 page pamphlet.

His most popular works are ''The 5,000 Year Leap'' and ''The Naked Communist''. A book by Skousen on end times prophecy, ''The Cleansing of America,'' was published by Valor Publishing Group in 2010, four years after his death.
==Early life and education==
Skousen was born on a dryland farm in Raymond, Alberta, Canada, the second of nine children of Royal Pratt Skousen and Margarita Bentley Skousen, who were U.S. citizens. He lived in Canada until he was ten years old, then moved with his family to California where his father supervised the paving of some of the original Route 66. In 1926, Skousen went to the Mormon colony, Colonia Juarez, Mexico for two years to help his seriously ill grandmother. While there, he attended the Juarez Academy and was employed for a time as a race horse jockey. Skousen then returned to California, graduating from high school in 1930. At the age of 17 he traveled to Great Britain as a missionary for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church).〔 (Online reprint ) by TheFreeLibrary.com, retrieved 2009-11-19〕
After completing his missionary service, Skousen attended San Bernardino Valley Jr. College, graduating in 1935. He married Jewel Pitcher in August 1936, and they raised eight children together. He graduated with an LL.B. from George Washington University Law School in June 1940 (the school updated his degree as Juris Doctor (J.D.) in 1972 with its degree nomenclature).
