Scope and Contents

A Martin Harris signature was forged in the back of this book by Mark Hofmann. The alteration served to increase the value of the book. Because Martin Harris signatures are very rare, it also added further "proof" of the authenticity of the Salamander letter, by providing another signature with which to compare the one on the Salamander letter.
