His private museum houses thousands of original artifacts that focus on the American Revolution, the Civil War and the Old West. These give the audience the simulated experience of walking through the National Archives, the Smithsonian and the Library of Congress. From original newspapers, magazines, diaries, weapons, clothing and other primary sources, the content becomes illuminated with the audience receiving the history they did not know from their own education and research. While speaking on the Boston Massacre at FAU (Florida Atlantic University), he appeared in the uniform of Captain Thomas Preston (British Officer) in charge of the squad who fired shots on King Street in Boston, killing five colonists. With a power point of rare and original photos, the audience saw a collection of three dozen original primary sources including the "Trial Transcript of the British Soldiers c. 1770. Included was Sam Adams 1775, The Boston Massacre Eulogy with his name written on the title page. His lectures have become well known and heavily attended. At NOVA SE University, history professors attended his lectures with pen and paper to take notes on information they could use for instruction with their students. At FAU, C-Span III American History came in to film his lecture on "The Zero Factor or the Curse on the White House." Soon after, Fuji Corporation came to his private museum to film him doing the same show for their series in Japan on "Histories Mysteries." A second show was filmed, "Target Assassination," with similarities on the assassination of Lincoln and Kennedy."
