There is much, but i forgot that Jerald has since gone to glory.

Their work is relevant to the next post,

Jerald and Sandra Tanner (Salt Lake City residents who left the Mormon church after coming to doubt the legitimacy of the church’s claims) were suspicious of Hofmann’s Salamander Letter. Though Hofmann’s “discoveries” of important Mormon documents often appeared to bolster the Tanners’ own arguments, Jerald had, by early 1984, concluded there was significant doubt as to the Salamander Letter’s authenticity, and “to the astonishment of a community of scholars, historians and students, published an attack on the so-called Salamander Letter.”[5] By late 1984, Jerald Tanner questioned the authenticity of most if not all of Hofmann’s “discoveries” based in large part of their unproven provenance. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salamander_letter#Suspicion_.26_Resolution
