As a historian, I can tell you flatly that there is as much chance of anything in the Da Lynch'im Toad being true as of you getting change out of a three-dollar bills. It is not a matter of interpretation of known facts, but of open, bare-faced mendacity and fraud. It is an insult to mankind's collective ability to tell truth from lies that this piece of shit has been granted the attention it has. Please, please, please, banish from your mind the very thought that anything about it might have the least and slightest chance of being based on anything that has even a nodding acquaintance with the truth. And let me repeat this: it is as a historian, not as a Christian, that I am in a continuing, white-hot rage about this shameless fraud.
