On the Sage Gunn History manuscript, 15.9.1903; a letter to the Editor of the Northern Ensign ‘GENUINE AND BOGUS’
REVIEW
This is a letter of complaint and deals with several then key issues including
· The historical validity of Donald Sage
· Was Sage – and / or Sinclair - biased?
· Did Sinclair know anything?
· Corrish...
The basic issue now is, of course, that so much time was spent looking at the male line, no thought was given to the female line ...
KEY ISSUES / PEOPLE / IDEAS PHRASES
