All items offered at Australian Dollar prices subject to prior FOREWORD sale. Prices include GST. Postage & insurance is extra. I was discussing the issue of mistakes in catalogues with an old friend over Payment is due on receipt of books. dinner last night and I mentioned that there are more than a few recipients of No reply means item sold prior to receipt of your order. the catalogue who are happy to let me know of any solecisms, misspellings or typos in my catalogues. Or indeed any errors of fact. Unless to firm order, books will only be held for three days. Though we spell-check the entries and read them, sometimes an error will escape our checking and that is always an embarrassment. CONTENTS We all know of the misspellings that spell-check won’t pick up because the misspelt word is also a valid word. BOOKS OF THE MONTH 1 - 30 “Two” and “too”; “Boer” and “boar”, “sea” and “see”, “straight” and “strait”, AUSTRALIA & THE PACIFIC 31 - 189 “knows” and “nose”, the list is endless. FOLIO SOCIETY 190 - 207 Spell-check also sometimes suggests strange variants where the word is not MISCELLANEOUS 208 - 435 entirely recognisable. There a couple of books on Breaker Morant in this catalogue and spell-check suggested I use “mordant” instead of “Morant”. It also suggested I use “Komodo” instead of “Kokoda”. So it has to be used Front cover items: with care, being sure to not always accept suggested changes. / 17, 344, 362, 30, 261 My friend suggested that I create a competition by making five deliberate 9, 297, 290, 385, 435 mistakes and offer a prize for whoever is first to find them, much as Ray- mond Howgego made a deliberate mistake in his set of “Encyclopedia of Back cover items: Exploration” and challenged readers to find it, though from memory this 391, 242, 287, 282, 98, 48/ 351 (2v), 109, 31, 395, 398/ involved a spurious entry that should not have been included. 257, 449, 135, 387/ 264, 325, Legal Classics, 346 I haven’t done that in this catalogue so if you find July 2016 an error of any sort then it isn’t deliberate.
