Scholz was a well-experienced researcher and author. His book is filled with footnotes.
He did not quote from Atwood at all that's for sure or others, as he would have noted this.
Most of his material and information is from documents, issued before the end of the war
and he got through persons from the former DDR, who did research there or from well-respected
West-German archives and researchers. He often quotes the Jahresberichte from Feldafing, the
Schumacher-collection and periodicals etc.
Often I am also very, very suspicious, but with Scholz I can't say I found much which is
not correct. For me there still is a few % doubt, but for 90-95% I do believe in what
Scholz notes and has written about. As said, I will see what is said in the Jahresberichte
that I have. But time is my spoilsport as I have to make preparations for a small exhibition
and I need to make many plates with lots of explanations on behalf of Japanese kimono, sake
cups and bottles and Asian chopsticks.
