"Valuable" book

[edit]

No serious, published historian considers Gedgaudas a serious researcher or his book a valuable resource. The cited Voruta article is by lt:Rimantas Matulis who is not a published historian but an activist ("veikėjas"). The reviewed book is by lt:Jonas Laurinavičius (1938), a journalist. The book barely gets any attention on the Internet and appears received no reviews from credible academic authors. It has been clearly labeled as pseudo-historical by Tomas Baranauskas. The book is not held widely in libraries; looks like only 3 in Lithuania and 2 in Belarus. If either Gedgaudas' or Laurinavičius' were considered "valuable", there would be a lot more and better references to them in the academic press. Renata (talk) 20:18, 7 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
