Default Whoops!!

This would have never happened if Dean Romig or Mike Koneski have been the editor of this book.
Do you see the error?

Maybe they were working on a camping book about cooking over a wood fire at the same time. Just recently listened to Smith speak about Gene Hill.

You can have it when I am done.

I wonder if Smith picked up on it.... Oddly he even signed it below the transgression, without so much as an apology.

I wonder if the error was corrected in the second printing...?

Printed in the Peoples Republic of China? Sounded good to them if it was.

No matter how hard you try, you just can't proof all the errors. Even big ones sometimes. There's a proof error in the dedication of the second edition of my Kimble book that still haunts me to this day.
