Will 2017 be the year people stop "believing" in the Prince Henry Sinclair story and begin to use the word "evidence?" I'm skeptical, but there are two interesting research projects which have a chance of giving the story some actual evidence. Both will likely be available to the public within the year.
- My friend Zena Helpern will soon be publishing a book on a journey which somehow or other (I've not seen the manuscript) proves that Prince Henry Sinclair made the trip, at least to Oak Island. While the Prince Henry involvement in the story is but a very small part, I'm told that our family might want to keep an eye out for Zena's upcoming book. While I haven't seen the book yet, I'm familiar with enough of the research to say it's almost entirely new work rather than the usual re-hash.
- Apparently Prince Henry Sinclair kept a journal. "Dear Diary, I'm off the New World." I've been involved enough in this one to be highly skeptical, but if you know me then you know I keep an open mind. This one is more difficult for me because I've been made aware of parts of it on which I am openly calling bullshit. That said, other parts seem practically impossible for the one who discovered it to have invented. I'll be waiting to learn more details on this one as well and will keep you informed. Like Zena's research, this journal research is also new material.
Keep you posted,
Steve
