[edit] Techniques, technical data
While serving my mission, I came across a copy of BYU magazine that discussed how Hofmann produced his documents and how they fooled so many experts. I found it fascinating. Anyone have access to material that discusses this aspect of his work? — Frecklefoot | Talk 21:19, July 25, 2005 (UTC)
I suggest that you read the book "The Poet and the Murderer". It focuses in great detail on how he created many of his forgeries.
- Also read The Mormon Murders by Steven Naifeh and Gregory White Smith -- an exhaustive and very well written book about the forgeries and murders. The forensic documents examiners emerge as among the true heroes in the investigation. Z Wylld 20:49, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
