What's Caidin's track record?


His writing "never let the facts get in the way of a good story."


[snip]

And then there is the ugly wrangle he had with Sakai over the
latter's so-called 'autobiography'.


Aha! I'm very interested in Sakai's book as published in English.
Without going too deeply into it, I found several tall tales in it,
which are noted at www.warbirdforum.com/samurai.htm

I had the feeling that these were introduced by Caidin, or perhaps by
Fred Saito (who rendered it into English for Caidin to work with).

I'd like to know more about the Caidin-Sakai wrangle!
