Default Re: New Yenko book, HELP!!!

First of all, anyone who expects this book to be 100% accurate might as well save their money and not buy it, as there is no way Bob, nor anyone else, could write such a book. Case in point. In 1987 Don did an interview where he gave information that has been proven to be factual wrong. Why? Who knows? In addition, we know for a fact there are errors in the original paperwork we have, but because we do not want to risk hurting the integrity of the information, it will remain that way. It has been over 35 years since much of the history of Yenko took place, and as we all know, time has a way of changing what we remember, if we remember at all.

Bob is trying to get information from “ground zero”, as he has interviewed several folks who were directly associated with Yenko, including Don’s wife Hope, daughters Lynn and Terri and top salesman Mel Bogus, with several others on his “to do list”. BKH, Marlin, Joey and myself have been asked to provide information, mainly photos, original paperwork and other artifacts.

As with any book, I am sure several folks will be asked to proof it, but in reality, who really knows all there is to know about Yenko? Certainly not me. And as anyone who has been in this hobby any length of time knows, just when you think you have it figured out, new information surfaces that changes what you think.


I believe it is obvious by the email Bob sent me that he is serious about what goes into the book and will do his best to see that he puts out a quality product. I for one am looking forward to the finished product.
