Quote from Thunderdog:
Your duplicity (or schizophrenia?) is stunning. You are going out of your way to defend a book you believe is "fatally flawed." You refer to the importance of endorsements which you had previously dismissed as typically being nothing more than "professional courtesy." More specifically, you refer to the importance of Ed Seykota's endorsement, but you had previously questioned his sanity in another thread:

Perhaps I should start a similar thread about you.
P.S. Why would anyone want to read Covel's Turtle book when they can read Curtis Faith's book?
yeah, ES is a little nuts, so what?? doesn't mean he was not a great trader,educated, good money manager and knows good writing when he sees it.
definitely read curtis faith's book, also. it's another perspective from a different angle.
- however, covel goes in depth into most of the turtles, it's really good reading and entertaining!
different books, different purposes on the same subject.....
