May be a difficult undertaking considering the phenomenal insights that have been and are continually being contributed in this area, but I'd love to see a new edition of Bringhurst's Saints, Slaves, and Blacks. Also, Lanny Britsch's Unto the Islands of the Sea.

FYI: Two years ago (2010) I updated my Bruce R. McConkie: Highlights in His Life and Teachings, with a 65 page epilogue, covering:
The Eugene England letter episode; the George Pace episode (I am told Pace now struggles with dementia, but he is a wonderful man); Mormon Doctrine issues; the 1978 revelation on the priesthood (fullest account in print); dealing with antiMormonism; acquiring spiritual knowledge; some of BRM’s spiritual experiences; and his last days and death.

Another one that just came to mind is White’s “Mormon Neo-orthodoxy”.

How about Crowther’s “Prophecy – Key To The Future”? (Yes, I’m smiling as I typed that). But I would enjoy reading an update of “World Magic View”, “Great Basin Kingdom”, Steven Shield’s “Divergent Paths of the Restoration”, VanWagoner’s “Sidney Rigdon”, Alexander’s “Wilford Woodruff”, Paul’s book on Mormon Cosmology, Underwood’s “Millenarianism”, and many others. I know most of these either can’t or won’t happen. And I’m still waiting for the truly definitive book on all things Nauvoo.

Sisters in Spirit, from the next generation of scholars – as good as the original is, it’s been, well, a lifetime since it came out.

I understand Eric Jepson is working on a critical edition of Added Upon, with accompanying essays from several contributors.
