This story was widely publicized at the time (2002) and basically 
trashed Ambrose's reputation. A few months later, he died of lung 
cancer. It's sad in so many respects. He was a well regarded war 
historian and I remember how unnecessary his railroad book was, 
coming out as it did just months after Empire Express, a far superior 
book.
