Crowl goes on to argue that "There was no pretense on the historian's part to scientific objectivity, nor any claim to having reached his conclusions on the basis of exhaustive research." Crowl seems to think that much of Mahan's theory was based on whim stemmin .....

Some things that he did include: -If p is a prime and a is a prime to p then ap-1-1 is divisible by p, that is, ap-1-1=0 (mod p). The proof of this, first given by Euler, was known quite well. A more general theorem is that a0-(n)-1=0 (mod n), where a is prime to n and p(n) is the number of integers less than n and prime to it. -An odd prime number can be expressed as the difference of two square integers in only one way.
