In my (educated) opinion, this author writes fiction, not history. DOR (HK) (talk) 08:21, 18 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]


Agreed. I purchased "The Yamato Dynasty" because it read "HISTORY" on the back cover. Although fascinating, the author & publisher would be more responsible by labelling it "HISTORICAL FICTION". What a shame. (I'm also educated/ experienced/ degree in Japanese History) Smithsensei (talk) 18:41, 30 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

His work reads more like tabloid journalism than actual history. His book "The Marcos Dynasty" is heavy on conjecture and idle speculation and light on facts. As far as I know, most historians believe "Yamashita's gold" to be a legend, but he treats it like gospel. Josh (talk) 02:44, 8 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
