Rating:  Summary: "What else haven't they told us?" Review: " 'Inside - Camp X', mystery, intrique, and secrets are all unfolded in the book in a way that will surely captivate even the most slothful of readers." " The book demonstrates how even without a lot of primary documents available, a story can still be reconstructed accurately and made ready to inform generations yet to come. Little having been actually written on Camp X, the author has successfully prevented the story from being effectively truncated from our history forever." Publishers, Family History News, Oshawa, Ontario
