The authors' credibility is questioned due to claims of accessing archives that were never visited.
But Gardner, I just think is wrong in his theory. He's a respected historian. I think he's off base on this one. I think he's allowed his personal feelings of negativity towards Lindbergh to cloud his judgment.
But the only people that I ever say anything about in any way, about them themselves would be Monir and Ogburn who wrote Crime of the Century because they flat out lie in their book. They say that they went to the archives. But Mark Balzini, who is a really credible guy who runs the archives, has said point blank, they've never been there. So I have no use for their book and I question their credibility.
