Context:

Ben Wallace discusses a book he wrote about the most expensive bottle of wine ever sold, supposedly a 1787 Bordeaux that belonged to Thomas Jefferson, discovered in Paris in the mid-1980s. The book explores whether it was authentic or a con perpetrated by Hardy Rodenstock. While the specific title isn't mentioned in this excerpt, it's clearly identified as a book Wallace authored.

Context:

Referenced as 'Catchering the Rye' (likely a transcription error) when discussing treasure hunt clues. The speaker mentions J.D. Salinger's publisher Little Brown and connects it to the 'Home of Brown' clue in the treasure poem. The speaker recommends reading it: 'if you haven't, go read its phenomenal book.'

Context:

Forrest Fenn's self-published memoir containing the 24-line, six-stanza poem that provides clues to the treasure's location. The book was published in summer 2010 when Fenn hid the treasure. Later mentioned that this first book's profits went to the bookstore Collected Works, not to Fenn himself.

Context:

Referenced in context of a previous podcast episode. Roman Dial wrote a book about searching for his missing son in Costa Rica, who was initially presumed murdered but was actually killed by a tree that fell in a storm. The speaker draws a parallel to the unsatisfying nature of the Fenn treasure mystery resolution.

Context:

Mentioned at the very end of the transcript when Steve says Spencer will return with evidence about squirrels, 'including a book by the author, the same author who wrote Light in the Forest.' The specific author name is not provided in this excerpt.
