#4, Thanks, Chris. I’m not prepared to comment at all on motivations. I don’t know what’s involved there. I know that I have known Bret Eborn for a few years and I feel he’s always dealt pretty fairly with me with books. I have only recently met Tracy, and I don’t get the sense from him that he’s anything but sincere in his intentions. Having read the book now, it just seems like the task is beyond what nonprofessionals can do justice to, and I just think it’s high time for those that haven’t to admit that.

I am assuming that is the painting on the cover of the book, right? It certainly looks a lot more like the Scannel image than anything else. Apparently the artist has more faith in this than in any other artists’ renderings or pictures that have circulated. I’m looking forward to the rest of your review to find out why.

#3, there are certainly positive things to talk about. It will take some time, but I’ll get to them.

Excellent. Thanks for the review, Jared. I look forward to part II. I hate to be skeptical, but the fact that the book appears to have as its purpose (at least in part) to promote a new painting raises suspicion as to the motives of the book.

I haven’t finished the book yet, but the tone of the book thus far feels less academic than should be expected. And I have a number of as-of-yet unanswered questions dealing with details of the story I’ve read or heard elsewhere. However, the source data alone is invaluable to anyone who is interested in studying the broader issue.

Can’t wait for the remaining parts of the review, Jared!
