The author credibly relates the stories of his childhood and youth, and his various expeditions in search of evidence supporting pre-Columbian contact, between Europeans and persons living in what is today New England. However, most of the "action" concerning the story takes place out of his presence, and the author is forced to relate the "off-stage" bits by hearsay, and by including copies of documents given to him by his childhood friend. The author's childhood friend, Bill Jackson, is therefore the main proponent of this branch of material concerning early Europeans in America, and, naturally, Bill Jackson is dead. Not only that, but "Bill Jackson" probably isn't even that guy's birth name, since his family was allegedly brought to America in witness protection after "Bill Jackson's" birth in the late 1930's, despite the fact that the program, now known as WITSEC, didn't officially exist until the mid 1960's. (I acknowledge that some other version of this program probably existed in the intelligence community long before that, but even the OSS didn't exist until very shortly before the US entered WWII.) Not only that, but Bill Jackson, as an adult, allegedly worked for "Spartan", a civilian contractor to the intelligence community. Jackson and/or said contractor produced forged documents (related to the Cremona Documents) at someone's behest, to entrap members of Propaganda Due, an Italian Masonic Lodge which was implicated in corruption, fascist plots, and murder as late as the 1980's. As the main (if off-stage) proponent of the Cremona Documents, Bill Jackson's story, drawings, blurry pictures, and documents must be viewed with intense suspicion, more than the author is willing to employ.
A properly critical examination of the material presented by the author betrays the truth behind the Cremona Documents, which is that whatever truth and historical fact might have originally existed in those documents, and associated objects, is irrevocably trashed by their association with Bill Jackson and these connections to the intelligence community. Like Captain Ahab, Jackson's pursuit and promotion of these documents has dragged his friends (like Donald Ruh) into Jackson's obsessive quest. Further, the literary material itself includes various errors which suggest a more recent origin than authenticity would allow, which errors I leave to the purchasers of this large, and pricey, book to realize for themselves.
These flaws do not necessarily reflect poorly upon Donald Ruh, who has, to his credit, presented the material in a thorough and mostly impartial light, despite being caught up, like Ishmael, into his childhood friend's obsession. If you have an interest in the material, and the ability to afford the book, I
recommend you read it, with a skeptical eye.
