Many Esperanto supporters have attacked Ido over the years. One of them, Don Harlow, wrote a history of Ido in The Esperanto Book, in his third chapter, [How to Build a Language]. There have been many questions about the validity of his history, to which he replies at [Ido: The Beginning]. However, a few Ido partisans argue that Harlow's history does not jibe with all the eyewitness accounts, such as those reported by Jespersen, although it is based on material from some other other eyewitnesses such as [Emile Boirac] and [Gaston Moch]? and with some source documentation, to which Jespersen did not have access (such as Zamenhof's correspondence with Couturat and others during the period).
