| This book is almost free of errors. In fact, I am aware of only one, a typo on page 222 in the Index so slight it is barely worth mentioning. I thought I had found a second one, but that turned out to be a transcription error on my part. This testifies to the care Ms. Kelly brings to her work. The fact that Berrett-Koehler names the copy editor and proofreader at the front of the book may also bespeak exceptional care. And the first two entries below testify to the high quality of her scholarship: She not only names the proximate source of many of her quotes, but gives the source that work cites. |
| Page 195: | Note 14: "Morton J. Horwitz, The Transformation of American Law, 1780-1860 (New York and Oxford: Oxford University Press, 1992 [originally published 1977]), 55-58." |
| See next entry. |
| Page 216: | Note 7: "Morton J. Horwitz, The Transformation of American Law, 1780-1860 (Cambridge, Mass.: Harvard University Press, 1977); cited by Grossman and Adams, Taking care of Business, 8." |
| At first pass I thought this was a mistaken reference to the first edition, where she had previously cited the second edition. But no; it's that Grossman and Adams quoted the first edition. So this is not a mistake. |
