Andrew Wiles published the final version of his proof in 1995. It wouldn’t fit into a margin, though!

There’s a good book on how it was proved, and the extreme effort it took:

“Fermat's Enigma”, by Simon Singh, ISBN 978-0-385-49362-8.

I'll have to read that. I've already read "Fermat's Last Theorem" by the same author.
