<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ahearn, post: 1308468, member: 18211&quot;]I too have read the book and was also fascinated but in doing some research afterwards discovered that Tommy Thompson dictated most of the contents of the book with the view of making him the hero of the search. I&#039;ll let you do your own research but Tommy essentially disappeared after the gold was recovered, making private deals with buyers and leaving his investors with nothing. He cheated Christie&#039;s out of $36M. He apparently was not the good guy depicted in the book. </p><p>Still, it&#039;s a most interesting story. I would love to own one of the gold ingots from the wreck.:yes:[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
