They were taken, yes, but then they sat around after the war until relatives in the USSR petitioned for their release. Seventy steamer trunks of material were shipped out, and now form the collection at the Tesla Museum, Beograde Yugoslavia.
Also you can buy some of his notes:
"Nikola Tesla - Colorado Springs Notes"
"My Inventions"

Tesla was ok in his younger days but as he got older
Most of Tesla's later claims were essentially advertisments of his secret methods (without giving away the secrets,) as well as trolling for investors: "Here are the things I was planning to do before my funds got cut off. Give me a few $100K and I'll start this up again."
If Tesla had a secret technique to light hundreds of light bulbs over many miles distance, we can insist that he was successful, or we can insist that he was misguided. Bpth based on total ignorance, since we don't know what his secret method might have been.
