Default Books better?

I too spotted some typos including one that had my head needing sever scratching to work out what the text was supposed to say! I hope that my recent proof-reading on the Diamond T model review already published and now the recent Bedford QLR review that is in a forthcoming issue have eliminated glaring errors.

I have learned I think now that the forthcoming series of CMP books and their spawned books on other MVs must have all aspects thoroughly checked, point one, and point two, introduce new information or provide a point of reference. In the first book that I have written I have identified every single source of reference in the historical narrative. If the footnotes are not used in publication at least I have the source to hand for future historians/researchers.
